Mpg
I know theres threads on this but what's everyones mpg, do you have a tuner, and what's your tire size? Trying to figure out if getting the programmer is worth it. Getting 16 mpg with 35s

I have the gryphon tuner from PHP and i get around 14 city. On highway if i don't go over 70 MPH i get around 21 (recently got 21.3 from Houston to Dallas )... driving aggressively between 75 and 85 MPH i get around 17-18. I have 31" tires. I also have the Gotts mod and a magnaflow SI/DO muffler which i think helps also.

07 supercrew, 5.4, duals, no cats, gotts mod and Edge Evo on setting 3 with some of my own tweaking I'm getting anywhere between 14.5 to 15.5 with 35's and 3.55's and auto tranny. I do better IN town than on the highway, repeatedly, and I don't do over 70. Ran the Edge on setting 2 with some tweaks and was getting 15.5-16, I've been paying close attention to my mpg, just curious to see what different settings on the Evo do to it. Have a gryphon before the end of the year tho. Changing plugs and O2's in November, anxious to see what that does for mpg too.

It also depends on how many stop and red lights are in your area cause just idling makes mileage go way down and if you accelerate fast then that can cause low MPG also. I try to not make my RPM's go above 2k unless i have to while accelerating, I dont have big tires but ive noticed those two things.
