you know, everyone talks about mileage and speed, but rpm's are the key to mileage, I believe. I have a 2wdv10 and the further under 2000 rpm I get the better the mileage, get above 2200 and forget it. that means at 58 to 62 mph I can get 16 to 17 on hwy go to 70 to 80 and it drops to 14 fast. around town it dont matter, if it did I would sell it.

We have a v10 4wd. I can get in the low to mid 14's on hiway. Still around town is 11.1-11.5. Not bad. Any suggestions about a K & N or other way to improve mileage?

My mileage matches 2003's but my around town is bad (mainly cause i'm always running late to work). 2003 from what I understand getting an aftermarket Y-pipe is supposed to help. This thread has been going in the V-10 Forum https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/8...ng-report.html I should be getting mine in a week or so
