gas mileage
I've always thought my gas mileage could be better but today I checked after a trip to southern Maine and back. (300 mi round trip) I am getting 12 MPG.
It is an 89 F150 sb with 5 sp and 3.55 gears. The tires are 31x10.5x15 and it was not driven hard. (65 mph all the way. Almost 100% highway miles.)
Should I be seeing better milage than 12 mpg or is that wishful thinking.?

Right after posting this I found a similar question posted on a 303 getting poor milage. I should have caught up on some reading. You can reply to this if you have a suggestion, in the meanwhile I'm going to read through that post I mentioned. Sorry for the duplicate question.
