Fuel mileage

So I figured out my average mpg used on my trip to manning and back. Just about 23 mpg. Not bad for a f150 4x4! This is taking into consideration some of the driving was done in four wheel drive too!

My only trip of any length was to Raymore and back but I got 26mpg. Even in the cold last week I still got 17 drviving to work, so I am well pleased with my truck.

That`s great fuel milage, hope mine gets near that. As little as I drove it it seemed to be in the low teens. I`ll find out this spring as I don`t need an F350 now and I`m driving an 86 Mercury for the winter.

Wow 26 mpg is great, I wish I got that! In the winter time I think is the best time to need a 1 ton 4x4 diesel

Yeah the 5.8s arent very good on fuel, but no worries man, they are really good motors none the less! Do you know how many hp your 5.8 is supposed to have dustin?

I had a 94 and the hp was 215 as I remember, not much more than the 302 but alot more torque and that 94 was a stump puller and a beautiful truck besides. I had a Xcab long box and I could still get 18mpg at 110.
