I was getting about 14 mostly city, some highway. I'm down to about 12 now that I've loaded it down with all my tools to work on a house I'm rehabbing. I've gotten 19+ on the highway. I've also gotten 10 in heavy traffic

Truck normal around the 14 figure in town, 18 to 19 hiway, best 22.8 hiway.

86 302 EFI / AOD 3.55 gears 4 wheel drive supercab, STOCK height, STOCK size tires.

The 86 Bronco with the same engine/trans/gear ratio runs less than 10 in town, best ever on the hiway was 15.5. But it is raised 4", with 12.50x33 tires.

Hope this helps, David
