Yea that's what has me puzzled. I usually got like 15-16 ... On most tanks I was doing 50% hwy, 30% rural, and 20% lighted city streets in my neighborhood. I would still no matter what, average out for the tank at 15.4mpg.. Which I thought was low for all the highway I was doing where I was seeing the 21-25 ranges if I kept it light footed and on cruise at or just above speed limits,

Also notice, some days it feels like the torque converter locks in when it shifts into 3rd and 4th.. Sometimes while I'm still trying to accelerate! Bugs the hell out of me! Cause it makes me have to hit the pedal a little harder to make it pick up.. It doesn't have that usual effortless acceleration.

Rpm drops or rpm rises while the truck goes nowhere?

2013 SCREW EB 4x4 with 3.55. Only 1600 miles on it so far. Last tank was 18.4 and the average meter show 18.3.

I haven't had time to do any real number crunching, plus I want to wait for the first oil change and some more breakin.

If only I would drive 55 with cruise everywhere.

Yes sometimes... I'll have the gear numbers illuminated on the info console.. And it'll show I'm in 3rd or 4th gear, while I'm still trying to accelerate, and it'll almost feel like it kicks into the overdrive, or torque converter locks up, and I'll have to hit the gas harder to make it kick out, or downshift so I can still accelerate.. Agains, this isn't all the time, but a good amount of it!

You guys are killing me, I just turned 8K on my 12 screw Platinum, 4x4 with 3.55 gears, and my lifetime is 16.1 with 75% HWY miles. Actually I get the same in town as Hwy, typically 15.5 to 16.5 overall driving. Whats worse is I do baby my truck, and I drive 350-450 miles one way I-10 from Fl. to LA to work, and can not get anything better than 16 mpg with cruise set at 70. Now I have on a couple occasions reset my trip at speeds ranging from 60-70 mph, and have had my economy rise to 19-21 mpg, and then end up at 16 after 20-30 miles of driving. It`s almost like my truck computer is bad, and just automatically resets to previous economy. Has anyone had issues with their computers or get the same in town as hwy driving?

I've got a 2013 screw and on short in town driving I get several mpg's less than highway. Maybe check with dealer on it? I'd definitely want the computer checked if it was mine.

I drive 60/40 hwy/city and I'm getting excellent fuel economy. I'm very light on the throttle at green lights which means the RPM's don't go above 2,000. On the highway I drive at a constant 60 mph. The EB has great low end torque so that really helps.

I'm getting about 850 KM's on a tank.

Ive just got 3500km on my 2012 Eco SCREW 3.55.

I am really struggling with the mileage but figure I wont get any true data till next summer with temp and mileage

My last tank I had was 450 km on 115 L and am averaging 20L/100KM according to the truck.

This included some 4x4, and idling for warm up and all in city driving.

Still not impressive to say the least......... even in the cold.
