Dash calculated vs actual calculation to prove. My dash is consistently 1mpg- .04 off. Im not sure if the 3G is better?

I got 19.5 from WV to FL and back, about 1600 miles, that included a week's worth of in-town driving in traffic.

It’s unreal, to be kind, that anyone is getting 22 or 23 mpg. Having owned 3 Gen 2s, and having driven across country and back, about 6k miles each time, I never got more than 17 or so and considered that good.

But it’s a raptor so who cares? If it was mpg I was concerned with I’d be driving a Prius.

Got 16.9 on a 16xx road mile. Cruising around 80-85 mph on the highway. Little local road driving.

I had a 2018 and and a 2019 Raptor and I was always getting about 19-23. I can't seem to break 16.5 on my 2023.
I averaged 16.9 in my 2018 and 12.9 in my 23. Same daily drive, generally.

I dunno why, maybe it’s the better sounding exhaust on this one

Any tips for road-trips? I’m flying 2,000 miles tomorrow to pick up my new raptor and driving it back! Hope to finish the drive in 3 days with 2 others helping me drive.

I recently did a road trip and tried to get better mileage. I got it to 18.4 but averaged 16.4 for the entire trip. Well worth the fun it was.
