Depends on how much I want to hear my new MDesigns exhaust! LOL

Yeah, that's pretty close to what I get. About 19mpg average between city and highway right now...Pre-Tune, Pre-DPs...but with an Rx Catch Can

Wow.  We get nowhere near that. In our 2014 XSport with mostly city driving we see 15MPG, on family road trips I've seen 22MPG keeping it around 70MPH and around 20.5 to 21 when we cruise at 80MPH.  That's fully loaded with 4 people, car seats, and a weeks worth of luggage though. 

If I really romp it around the city it's down around 14MPG.  That's per the built in computer, which I've found across my various Ford vehicles of the last 5 years or so to be about 1MPG above the actual observed MPG when calculated manually.

Oddly enough though we saw about the same gas mileage in our 2012 Explorer XLT, so I much rather have the Ecoboost engine if I'm going to get bad gas mileage.  It's not easy pushing around a big SUV like though, so it's to be expected.

our 2014 x sport gets 23 mpg @ 70mph.  As soon as I hit 75mph it droops to 21mpg.  85mph  drops to 20mpg.

this was observed by using cruise control while doing a 2,300 mile road trip.

on a 50/50 mix of city highway, we get 18-19 mpg.

My 2013 PP SHO with a tune, gets 26mpg @ 70mph for comparisons.

These cars require 93 super,top tier gas such as Exxon,Shell.BP,gas,in order,also the winter blend gasoline affects your mpg,as it burns quicker and also cheaper to produce compared to summerblend,which gives you better mpg and better performance.

I'm getting an average of about 17mpg. That's with m design, 93 tune, DP, catback.
But I am all over the gas all the time. I'm about 70/30 city/highway

My 06 Expedition 3v 5.4  was getiing 18mpg I figured I would down size to the 6 ecoboost (what ever that means) I dont see any eco at all as far as fuel consumption I just hope gas prices dont start going up or i'll have to take a second job...(

We're getting 18.1 combined city/hwy and havent reset that since we bought it 5k miles ago.
I'm curious to see what the *** tune will do for it. When Shawn tuned my F150, I went from 17.2 to 19.5 mpgs and A LOT more power and better driveability.

Anyway, back to the topic at hand. Sorry for the hijack.
