5.0 owners post your best Full tank
So my last full tank I got 19.5 mpg's which is the best I have managed so far on a full tank. This was mixed driving going back in forth to work and few trips into town. I haven't had a chance to see a full tank on all highway but think over 20 mpg's is feasible. Let's hear other 5.0 owners results.

22 mpg on trip from Minneapolis to Indianapolis! 607 miles, filled at SAMs club in Bloomington MN and drove to SAMs club in Indianapolis! That 36 gallon tank is great for trips like that!

Any of my long trips are from Boston to points north; Maine, Vermont. Too many hills and literally mountains to cross, so the best I've seen in my 6,000 miles is 18. Maybe got to 19 once. Also tho, that's winter gas and conditions.

Mines a 13 Screw 4X4 and I haven't figured this out but...here in Louisiana the best I got was 19.5. I took a trip to NY a while back and best I got was 21.6. Not sure why there was such a difference. The change in MPG started to happen once I got above the Roanoke, VA area and continued the entire time north. The only thing I could think of was maybe the difference in humidity or air density. Very humid down here!
