thank you for the reply. i think i can deal with that for the upgrade in awesomeness. now i just gotta go get one. im really drooling over the new options on the 13. just wish they still had the orange paint option that they had when the raptor first came out.

Just did ~400km round trip today majority highway and averaged 13.4L/100 km which is 17.55 MPG. Not too shabby.

I have about 25K on my 2011 and the mpg have been pretty consistent, 10.3 mpg in the city, 14.5 mpg at 75 mph on the highway.

my combined right now is around 12.6 but I drive mine like a go cart. If I set the cruise at 70ish on the highway, I get between 16 and 17 depending on terrain.

I'm getting about 13.5 combined in my '10. I do have a fairly heavy foot though also it's running sct canned tunes and a volant intake with 20" bmf and 35 trail grapplers which don't help mileage at all
