thanks
I've got an '02 E150 conversion with a 3.55 and a 4.6 engine. On flat freeway runs with a fairly light load (4 people, bicycles and luggage), I can count on 17-18.5 mpg, and that is not driving slow. I'd bet I could hit 20 mpg driving 60, but just *can't* bring myself to do that.
I've got a spreadsheet which tracks my gas mileage for the lifetime of the van (59k miles) and just updated it--overall average of 16.4. Lots of city tanks in there, and this winter, mileage has really stunk using Michigan winter gas.
With an E350 and the 5.4, I'd guess you could count on 16-18 on straight freeway runs, depending on your load and your speed, and assuming summer gas.
