2014 4x4 Crew 21,000 miles
All stock except a Drop in K&N and a 2.5 inch level
I've never had below 16.5mpg and never above 18mpg
I drive a mix of 50/50 Highway/City. Sometimes more city other times more highway.
Longest road trip was 400miles round trip I averaged 75-90mph, I got 17.1 going & 18.0 coming back.
I couldn't be happier. I was getting between 10-12mpg in my single cab 4x4 Hemi

Two months ago I bought a 2014 screw 4x4 5.0. I average 22/23 mpg on the freeway and 16/18 in town. I'm blown away with the gas Milage. Couldn't be happier with it

Any recommendations on the plugs guys? It looks like most people are getting far better mileage results, I'm not sure what I can do to try and get closer to those numbers. I wanted to start with the plug change.

What the F?
This is my average. Everyday. Actually it's usually 13.8.

I am getting 15 average. It is a screw 4x4 with 3.55 and 14k miles. The only thing added is a ARE tonneau cover.

My 2011 5.0, 4x4 SCREW, 3:73, 72K is basically all stock, I use Amsoil full synthetic oil, Still original plugs. I did pull plugs out at 60K to see what they looked like and also wanted to make sure they would come out ok and I properly put them back in to spec. Im getting 17 to 20 city/highway. I do run pure gas as much as possible. with pure gas on highway it has jumped to 22 mpg.

If you do get new plugs, I was considering new ones for my truck and I was told to stay with the OEM Motorcraft spark plug. Something about the vvt.
