mileage performance

I have a 2014 Raptor SCREW. 70,000 miles. well taken care of. I have a soft cover on the bed and a Borla exhaust. at 65mph highway w/o AC it turns 1750 Rpm and I get 19-20 mpg. all day long. with AC running i get 18.5 19mpg, it turns maybe 1775-1800 rpm.

Engine will run forever at this low strain easy hauling rate.

The 6.2 really does get decent mileage unloaded. An F250 won't get into the high teens but it doesn't do too badly at 65-70.

I just drove 180 miles unloaded, keeping the 65 MPH speed limits all the way. I ended up with 16.9 MPG on the truck. Not too bad...

holy smokes.. here in the PNW I am lucky if I get 12.. granted... flatbed, 33 KM3's.. but i have a solid 10mpg. Drove 1200 miles down to cali and back, 65-75 all the way down and back and only got 12. Best I ever got was 14.9 and that was 55mph for 300 miles when I had my 31's and 3.73 gears.
