136l tank. I drove to Quebec City and back to Kingston, Ont, got 1,082 kms on the tank. This included a few days of short drives and sitting warmups in coldas**** weather.If it had been all highway top to bottom, I figure I'd have gotten 1150 or better. I hit 10.9 on the way home, with 4 people in the cab and the bed full of travel crap.

Pulling 12.9 today, in and around town, 150km's out of the tank. 80% hwy. Happy wid dat.

EDIT: running 13.3-5 all week here now, over 800kms driven, 80% hwy. That, and the Coyote has stopped using oil half way into its third set, following the second change. Using straight Ford 5W20 non-synthetic now. I'll run a fill of semi-synthetic next time and watch again.

Cheers to everyone!
To the OP for this idea. I'm starting to understand why our US brothers brag so much about mileages that I couldn't achieve with my granpa-style driving. I thought I'd have to dive further and drag myself into grandma's driving style... Geez!! What a relief!

I don't know if this is general, but I seem to have different results depending on the pump I go to. I don't use cheapo/unknown fuel and cycle around shell (90% of the time), because I've been having better engine longevity with this brand in 20 years. I'm reluctant to try more often esso, canadian tire or pioneer (the only others I used). Any thoughts on this are very welcomed! Thanks!

'13 XLT XTR SCrew, 136L tank, 5.0, 3.55, tow pkg, 6.5' bed, solid fold cover, infamous Pirelli ATR 20". No mods. 5 months. Always regular 87. Always smooth driving.

First 3600Kms (breakin period)
Averaged 22.7L/100km, getting instants of 23-28
City Driving 98%

Last 2000kms
Averaged 17.5L/100km,
City Driving 85% - getting instants of 14-19 (no flat ground)
Highway 15% (~100 Km/h, cruise on) - getting instants of 9 (flat ground) -13 (going up a slope). Love to look @ the screen when going down a slope lol! - I wish those readings lasted forever

Current average temperatures -10°C or colder.
Sorry the long post. Thought extra info could be of use.

Sorry I meant to write recent highway instants floats between 9.5 and 10.5 on flat or 1% slopped grounds.

Right around 15 L/100 km. That is basically 100% highway in these near 0 c temps. Travelling around 110-120 km/hr while matting it ever time I feel like passing. This is also on a truck that I took from about 100 km on the odometer to about 2200 km in the last 2 days.... so it will improve yet. Nothing "eco" about my setup either.. just "pig" or "outdated junk" according to the general consensus around here so feel free to refer to the ecoboost/5 liter mileage average above lol... and no i dont drive for nor truly care what mpg i get. SCrew FX4 157" wb 6.2 and 373. Stock but not for long.

2013 Eco with 11800kms.

My to date average is just over 18. My last tank was close to 28. Lowest was around 12 after a long, long road trip.

My daily commute is only 4km round trip so that doesn't help. The last were I got 28 was right after the dealer flashed my truck, am not happy at all. I agreed to put one more tank through it before I flip out on them. Not a single thing changed except for that flash and my mileage just tanked.

These values are all actuals, not dash readings.
