Damn, that sucks.

I get about 13.5 in my truck. Much less if I'm pulling something.

Me, about 18 mpg, wife around 30. Between the wife and I we spent about $70 last week on gas. Not a whole lot of driving you can do in Juneau.

Gas is about $4.25 here.

07 F150 regular cab V6

Around town in BR or at home I get around 14mpg

If there's any kind of interstate driving mixed in I'll get 16

On a long trip or going to the hunting camp and back a few times (mostly interstate/cruising) I can get almost 20

ETA I'm about to have to get new tires, and I plan on getting 33's so my mileage is about to suck worse

I drive a diesel f250....... What difference does it make?

The price of diesel is a rip off

The EPA sucks arse

Our govt sucks with regard to it mandate of ethanol and it multiple required blends

Damn! My Range Rover (4.6L) gets 13-14 mpg....

Is it time to change your air filter and/or a new set of spark plugs?
