My mpg
This is my avg mpg with the last 3 full ups. The last tank had a 100 mile round trip of straight highway at 55-65 mph. The rest is a good 50/50 mix of unloaded back and forth to work driving. I'm fairly happy with the mpg I'm getting. Lie o meter says 10.2 which it's always off by .2 it seems. Anyway I thought I'd share my mpg and the app road trip, definitely a great app!

My MPG
Last three fills on my 05 F250 CC SB 4X4 V10, been right @ 12 to a high of 12.8.
Had babied it was pulling 11.2-11.5, last three fills putting my foot in her, up to 65, some pulling of the tralier, 3000#, A/C most of the time. I'm a happy camper!
Got a road trip coming, pulling the loaded trailer, 3000+ @ 70-75mph, A/C a MUST! Will post those tanks.
Last year did the same w/F150 4.6, you don't want to know my mpg that time! Could not even mantain 70 with the load.
I LOVE my V-10! All stock, couldn't ask for a better TRUCK.

P.S.
Two of those miles was on fresh new asphalt, I dug two holes in it coming back home after getting a little foot heavy turning around!
This truck will do anything you ask of her!
Now that I'm not babying her, she is pulling right @ 12mpg. The old F150/4.6 was pulling 15-15.5 all the time.
10X the truck, losing about .20%mpg, I can live with that!

Sounds like your getting great mpg! I'm running 285-75-17s right now so it's not helping my mileage much

Half are unloaded the others are pulling a dump trailer with loads between 5-12,000lbs. I'm sure you can see which ones were the heavier loads. Unloaded I'll get 10.5 consistently with in town and towing I'm in the 7-9 range. The dual wheels don't help either. But this is honest mpg. Too bad more gas/diesel guys don't have this or other apps and could post their averages. Not just their best tank.

Just don't miss entering a fill up, it'll throw it all off from what I can see with the app. But truly I haven't explored the app too much. Just entering the data for the truck and car.

Eh....depends on cab configuration, 2x4/4x4, driving like you stole it or having an egg under the pedal. Mine gets worse being a dually.
