EXCURSION

I just purchased my Excursion and was wondering about exhaust. If i just change my muffler (Flowmaster) will it improve my gas mileage or will i have to change the whole system?

By the way have 1200 miles and getting 10.5 mpg
I also have the seat heaters I think I saw someone asking if anybody got it. Also have the entertainment package best option I ever bought my daughter loves it (she 19months). And yes i know I could have gotten a better deal aftermarket but I just want to deal with ford if the think ever breaks.

Happy Excursion owner

First off welcome to the best Ford community on-the web. What engine are you running? Exhaust will not make a huge difference in your mileage. It will make it sound better though. What were you referring too in regards to your aftermarket purchace? Your enertainment system?And I would never deal with a stealership for anything. These guys here are far better
