Sports Mode & MPG

[thatJeepguy]

I hand calculated every fill up for 6 months and couldn't see a difference.

The delta on my dash to actual is .4-1.2 mpg.

I get 14. But, my truck is Leadfoot, and so am I.

me too. the color and my foot. "lead". I also get 14. pretty much the same as my gen 2

I get about 15.5 on highway but again leadfoot. usually am running 80.

I get my best mpg on the highway. Usually no problem to get high 18s, hand calc'd too. I run 80-85mph.

Life might be better if you calculate the smiles vs the MPGs...

yeah I am going to hand calculate it the next few fill ups. ive been only going with the computer and that I have to think isn't as accurate.

i noticed this on my ranger with the 10 speed, wasnt crazy better, but was at least a consistent .5-1mpg higher and sport mode on that thing was way more aggressive than my 20 rap.

I get a thousand smiles per gallon.

California 91 (best I can get) is getting me 14-15 driving normally. Is 93 much of a MPG improvement?

I hand calculated gallons of fuel used v. miles traveled on trip odometer, and my gen 3 is getting 13.8 MPG combined with almost zero idle time. That's a far cry from the 17.8 combined my Gen 2 got on the same tires, wonder what's changed. Yes winter blend fuel and very cold temps aren't helping me.
