Default Gas Mileage's

What does everyone get from a tank of gas?

I'm driving an '07 FX2 with the V8, I can't remember how big exactly.

From a 30 gallon tank (which is never fully filled at the gas pump, maybe 25 gallon) I can get anywhere between 400 and 450 a tank. What does everyone else get?

Default '04 F150 4x4 5.4

I get right at 14 MPG and drive average (~7 miles over speed limit). My MPG does not change a lot with city or hwy miles. When I pull my camper I get 9 MPG.

'06 Supercab 4x4 with a 5.4 and I get 13 mpg. I havent run it completely down to empty but Im guessing about 300 miles to a tank, maybe a little more.

Ive only had the truck a week and a half.

My truck is tuned to perfection...put a superchip, CAI, and exhaust and i get 20.65.(hand calculated not the computer). this is also with 33's with a 2.5 leveling kit. Its all about synchronizing your additions and tweaking them. Oh and as much fun as it is, dont floor it too often.

Dude, Gator...You are the man!! You have done to your truck exactly what I want to do to mine. Except the CAI thing? I don't know what that is. Could you fill me in on what systems you have?

i have a Supercharged 93 F150 5.8L
City: 9 MPG
Hwy: 12.

thats just guessing. the real numbers from a 15 Gallon tank:
i drive an average of 150 to 200 miles a week, or more depending on what i have to do. those 15 gal. last me the whole week so i estimate on a full tank about 200 miles.

And thats driving like an *******, speeding and racing people in ricers who think they can beat a truck. i prove alot of them wrong.

A CAI is a cold air intake and i have the AF1. unfortunately they have gone out of business for some odd reason so you might have trouble finding one of those. I have the true dual flowmaster 40 series, and a superchips Mileage XS.

I checked last time I went out. The truck has a 5.4L. I've found if i try to not go above 2000rpm then i get good gas mileage and the truck sits comfortably at 70mph right on 2000rpm.
