No fluff here just the facts. This rig is too fun to drive versus my previous Wrangler 4xe & FJ Cruiser.

I have a 2.7 4dr Black Diamond Sasquatch and this is my real world MPG. I drive in Normal Mode and don’t baby it. At the same time I’m not driving it like I stole it either.
On the freeway once a weekend I cruise at a cool 70-75.

My MPG averages 13.4

What is your real world MPG?

*If you Hypermill please do not respond. You should be on a different forum all together.

Averaged 15.5 MPG since purchase about 9,000 miles ago using 87 octane gas. 2.7L, 4-door, Sasquatch. Mostly city, some interstate, some off roading.

Apparently I drive 86 MPH on highways. At least that's what Officer Canon wrote on my speeding ticket yesterday.

Drive it like you stole it!

Impressive. You’re at the higher percentile.

I don’t drive like a mad man but I don’t baby it either. On the highway I’ll do 65 to 70

Was doing great till winter set in, now I’m down under 21mpg. I swear the gas is different from summer gas, but might just be me.

About 13K on a 24 wild track, 3/4 city, little heavy on acceleration...run 88, 16.5...

AWESOME TITLE!!!!
2dr
2.3
7spd

added 35's to the 4.46 gear set.
Must use 5th gear now on the highway, but at 78 mph (gps) it spins 2700rpm and gets around 21 mpg.
Around town, rural area driving .. maybe 16.

I really think maintaining 65 to 70 on the freeway is the key to adding to MPG. Not that I’m closely monitoring it but just trying to see where the threshold is at.

2023 2.7L OBX stock non-SAS daily driver in NorCal with about 15K so far, of which roughly 5k of long road trips. Current average MPG is 19.5 on Costco gas, or Chevron when on trips. I have the LUX Pack and switch to eco mode more often than not. I am also one to keep my foot out of the boost and RPMs at 2K or less 75 % of the time. This suits my driving situation in our local traffic.

That said, I am very fond of the SPORT setting. Vroom Vroom!

When I first got the bronco, I stayed out of boost for the first thousand miles. You definitely have more self-control than I do because I’m constantly in boost. After reading these post, I am more conscious about staying out of boost at a stop sign or a stoplight.

Yes, I think the sweet spot is right around 67-68, just make sure you're in the right lane. I think the best mpg speed is around 58-62 from what I've noticed from the computer. I do write down every fill up to compare real numbers vs computer and the computer is around .6 mpg higher for me.

I have just over 1,700 miles on mine and I'm averaging 16.53mpg running mostly city/rural roads. I've been using mostly 93 or 91 octane gas since new. I've only ran 1 tank using ECO mode and I think I got the worst mileage to date. Attaching a picture of my fill ups. At 70% tank with 18mpg showing on my current tank.
