Current 18L - 19L/100km
City Driving 98%
Highway Driving 2%
Engine 5.0L
Current average temperatures Celsius -10
2013 SCab
On really cold mornings, I will let it warm up for a few minutes.
Pretty much all city driving in a city where they put up a new traffic light every couple days it seems. Amazing how many traffic lights we have, and all out of sync with each other. It pays to drive the long way home rather than the shorter distance due to the number of lights!
Bought this new end of November ... LOVE the truck.

I have to admit, it's kind of nice knowing that others are suffering thru some crappy mileage in winter too! 
Current mileage is about 18L/100km. 95% city driving, lots of idle time to warm up, etc. Southern Ontario has been cold this winter. From 0C to -35C.
Lifetime average is 16L/100km. It was 15 before winter mileage kicked in.
2013 FX4 (3.55) ecoboost.

Currently at 14.5l per 100km.
Summer with stock 18's, 11-12.4.
After leveling kit and trail grapplers, 16.8.
Don't run the grapplers in the winter.
Only syn oil and prem fuel is used.
Its about 50-50 city and highway for me.
Towing is 22l/100km
My 11 ram was 32l/100km when towing, so its a slight bit better, lol

2013 FX4 SuperCrew, 5.5ft box, 5.0 V8
Only have 1000kms on the truck at the moment, and getting about 17.4L/100km.
It feels like it is closer to 16.4 based on my fuel-ups...But I also have been punching the throttle a lot lately.

Wow... you guys must have some heavy feet.. or heavy trucks.
I'm running a stock 2013 STX 2wd... with the 5.0 and 3.55 gears.
My driving is 95% hiway and I'm pulling 12.9 per 100 km in the winter cold (-28c).
This past fall, I was doing around the 11 mark (hard to remember that far back).
Now, I'm of the generation that desires an insurance brake so I drive at a steady 100kph... doesn't mean I don't pinch it every so often... but I do know that if you're on it, these engines are a blast and THIRSTY!

Gas mileage changes dramatically between 100km/hr and 120km/hr!
If you're constantly driving highway and want a bit more out of your tank, drop it to 100km/hr and you'll see a huge difference.
Just gotta get used to all the grandmas in their oldsmobile's passing you!

Just ran 14.5/100 on a half tank in and around Toronto the past several days... trying to skaweeeze out every last drop. Still on the cool side here, this was done on 80% highway. Going for 14.2 now... wish me luck! By the way, just installed a Leer 180 cap on the back, methinks there is less drag....
