Raptor MPG
I'm looking into purchasing a Raptor and on the website the MPG is 15/18.
I'm wondering if some have gotten better or worst MPG numbers. Thanks for your feedback.

It's all in how you drive it. When my G1 was stock my avg was 14 but I regularly got 17+ on the highway. My avg was so low because I'm in DC traffic.
You should have no problem getting the advertised mileage if drive with a light foot - under boost you're feeding 7 liters so it goes to crap real quick.

Mine gets 16.5-16.9 on 87 riding around town and I lean on it from time to time.
I recently did a trip at 82mph cruise set on the interstate. 130 miles up, 130 back later that day got 13.5 on the highway. So the gas milage with a 4.10 goes to hell at high speeds.
Can't imagine why anyone buying a Raptor is concerned about mpg's though.
I mean if I said it got 13mpg around town are you not going to buy one?

In the 11.5 months that I've had my 2017 it's only been on the interstate once where the speed limit is 70 MPH. Most of my driving is in 55 mph and below speed limits. In those conditions my truck gets great mileage. The dealer reset my trip 2 meter at 99 miles and I haven't reset it since. @ 16,419 miles it is showing 19 mpgs. I drive conservatively at times but I also get after it a lot. I've even took it to the drag strip once.
FWIW...I run 93 octane.

Nassty, I want your mileage. How is it during winter? My last tank was 14.7. Yes, I have let it warm up more than usual. During warmer weather I have seen 17.6 on a regular basis. Highest on the dash has been 18.4.

I haven't reset the instant MPG screen for about 5k miles. That has dropped about 2 MPGs this winter due to winter blend fuel, cold weather and remote starting my truck/extended idling.

Only 1600-ish miles so far. In town 14mpg, highway running at 75mph-ish 16mpg.
For 6000lb brick on 35" tires and 4.10 gears I am not complaining. It is better than my FJ Cruiser.

I've had mine for 2 months. I get 13. 13 highway. 13 city. 13.
The little dash calculator says 14-15 - but it lies. MilesDriven/GallonsUsed= 13.
But damn, it's a fantastic 13.
