I will also add that i had to drive the speed limit to achieve these numbers.On the way down i got 19.1 but i drove 80 quiet a bit.On the way back i never broke 75 and mostly drove 70.Oh yeah i have a friend with a 2010 2wd supercrew with the 5.4 who made the same trip and he said he got 16,but he said he ran it 80 most of the way.

good numbers but my math shows avg. speed of about 60mph

Get you a tune and your MPG will go up 1-2 mpg.

Did your math figure the 3 stops and stretches of 2 lane roads with red lights?

Same truck set up and I'd never see close to those numbers! Awesome

nope was just commenting on the 70mph comment you said you drove. you failed to mentioned all the stops and 2 lane in your post guess

With 500 miles you can assume a piss break or two. He has no reason to lie about his average speed. Great numbers for a 4x4 by the way.

gillysmi 10-20-2013 03:26 PM

I didn't say he lied was just trying to figure the math. I agree he got great numbers and I hope mine will get that as well.

OP did you truck always get pretty good mpg's or has it gotten better with more miles on the truck?

shanel 10-20-2013 06:35 PM

I made the same trip last year, except to destin instead of navarre and i got 18.1,but i ran alot harder.The mpg's are the worst for the first 15 minutes while warming up and anything over 70 mph.Btw guys those numbers are real world i started the trip counter as i pulled out of the condo,and took the pic when i pulled in my driveway.The truck will get decent numbers if you keep your foot out of it.Honeslty i don't think it's getting any better than when new i have just learned how to drive it.
