Bad fuel MPG or Average?
I have been checking my MPG for 3 months now. Using the old math method number of miles drive/number of gallons used and am averaging 13.2. Some city some highway. Is this low? or pretty standard? 99 F350 CC Long Box.Auto

i get 17.5 -18 in the summer. but only 13.5 -15 in the winter.
different fuel ,warm up times. and more fuel is needed in colder temps.
average i would say for this time of year

I had been getting 16.5 to 17.5 during the warmer months. Maybe with warmup time and such I shouldn't stress too much. Just watching the pennies or now the dollars with the price of fuel if you know what I mean.
