mileage
First of all , this is my first posting,so hello to everyone.
I have a 2002 f-150 xl standard cab,4.2v6,k&n filter,flowmaster exhaust-single in dual out,exit in front of the rear tire.
I do a lot of highway driving mixed with about 30% rushhour traffic. I average about 20-21 mpg with a high of 22mpg.My truck is a 5-speed with a 3:55 rear.I love my truck, it currently has about 90,000 miles with no problems and the original tires all around. I average about 50,000 mi. a year.I've enjoyed reading your forum and look forward to participating in your conversations.

Sup travlnman!
I have an '03 regular cab 4.2 with a 5 speed. I love it to death that's for sure. Of course I only have 10,000 miles on it. Before you go for electric fans (which I'm interested in too) I would get a Diablo Chip. So far from our experience here with them they tend to give you about a 1/2 second gain in the 1/4 mile. Try these sights out:
www.motorhaven.com
www.seffects.com
www.truckperformance.com
The motorhaven sight has the Diablo chip. Basically for the 2 Stage chip you pay 229.50 plus $8 shipping. I should have mine in about a day or 2. I recently ordered one and I'll let you know how it goes. Good luck with the truck!

Wow, you've really got some good gas mileage there!
I'm not sure how much mine gets on the highway but with my 4.10 gears and the smaller tires i'm sure it's not that good. Around town is pretty decent seeing that my motor struggles less to jump from light to light. But highway driving mileage is not very good.
Welcome to FTE! Hope you stick around.
Joe is right about the chip. My Diablo I bought from Motorhaven.com dropped me .4 seconds in the quarter and simply rapes from light to light. For the money, it's the best performance you can buy coupled with the simplest installation.
I can't wait to read Joe's reviews after he installs it, he's going to be using alot of capital letters and exclamation marks, as well as a bunch of smiley faces and so forth. It should be fun to see him freak out about it because I think it's going to perform better than what he actually expects it too....you'll see Joe.
