Mpg question

Hey everyone, I bought my 2000 f250 with a 6 inch lift and 325/60 r20 I did the math today and it is giving me around 12.6 mpg is this good for a lifted truck or bad. It is highway and street driving but mostly highway, thanks

I think its great- and sounds like a real number.

I have a 2011- 6.2 gas stock- around town- 11 mpg highway empty 14, best tank ever was 18 mpg-but I was driving really easy and not over 65.

Agreed....if you are getting over 10 mpg with those tires and a lift, you are probably the economy king of liftef fords....

Congrats on the truck

That's actually really good mileage for your truck and lift combo.

"good" depends on what engine you have.

LOL Wish I got that good with my 2000 SC CC V10. Just filled up yesterday and I'm getting 9.75 MPG between home and work and that is only 10 miles each way.
