Just hit 500 miles-truck is 10 days old. I am averaging 11.6 thus far-been steadily climbing. A mixture of stop and go and highway to date. Curious to see what things look like at 1000 miles-will there be any improvement or no? Mid perch and new wheels next week but staying with the stockers.

Just turned 10,000, overall (never reset from day 1) 14.8.

3500 miles of that was towing a trailer. Either a flatbed car hauler (loaded one way) or a 14' enclosed cargo trailer (loaded, but not real heavy, maybe 1000 lbs at most)

I should also note that I do not live in a flat area. I have to hunt for a flat spot just to check my oil...

Approaching 30,000 miles. Averaging about 11.3 mpg on 93 octane in city driving. If I stomp on it because of a new mod it drops below 11, but when I drive like a mature adult it's sticking to 11.3.

Roush CAI and Flowmaster 40 exhaust seem to have had no effect.

The advertised mpgs for the 2013 Raptor are 11mpg city and 16mpg highway. In not sure how some folks are getting such better numbers, but I'm happy for them. But I'm getting what my window sticker told me to expect, so I'm not surprised. I'd love to learn if there is anything I can do to get 13, 14, 15 city mpgs...
