Another trip from South Jersey to Baltimore MD, then Baltimore to Hanover MD*, then back to South Jersey.. did anywhere from 4-9 mph over and she avg 14.9mpg.

*I hit a shit ton of traffic on this leg and sat idling in a parking garage at the Arundel Mall for over 40 minutes... I'll never go back there. Though a Raptor will fit inside that parking garage, but the spaces are tight width wise. I recommend going to the roof where less people park and you can easily get a corner spot.

Getting about 15.9-16.2mpg on the highway at 70mph from Spring, TX down off the Beltway 8 (about 37 miles one way). With mixed driving I'm seeing around 14.5mpg. Truck only has 350 miles on it right now, too.

Edit: Forgot to mention it's a SuperCrew and is 100% stock.

For some reason the price of premium (93oct) has skyrocketed, but the price of regular (87oct) has remained the same.. $3.41 for regular and $4.19 for premium. So I've been filling up with regular for the last two tanks. Daily commute of roughly 15 miles total, dropped from the high 13mpg to the high 12mpg range.

The truck seems to idle alittle rougher and there might be alittle less pedal, but nothing to write home about.

E-30 is better than e-10 the87probably has 10% in it with crap gas.

It is upto 10% here and it was a Sunoco station, which is one of the better fuels around here. ..but, even at $0.70+ difference, 93oct might be worth the extra $$..

We just took a trip to see the Flyers vs Devils last night and the results speak for themselves..

Filled up before we left, drove there / back with next to no traffic, and took that this morning.

yes even me the ethanol man I'll never use 10% if I can help it. e-30 all the way has better octane about 95 car's run better stronger. or I'll be using 91 octane gas. my trip to the hills should tell me a few thing's. I'll use e-30 back at home either way because it's cleaner. I used 93 octane in the truck when it was new for the first few tanks, so if I have to run it at the hills I'll run a tank at home again to find mpg difference.
