That website IIRC shows what MPG averages were on the window sticker from the factory.

 

So what were idk say motor trends averages when they tested her out? guess it don't matter since i know what my average is. but it'd be nice to see what professionals are testing her out to be along with everyone here's average you know?

 

dude that site is off, my window sticker says 13 city 17 highway

 

Hmmm... I stand corrected! Maybe they did a test that was real drivers getting an average.

 

you two really are anomalies, whitewidow claiming 20mpgs possible out of a 5.9 (the only person i know who can get those numbers out of a 5.9) and ajoshi claiming 13 at best out of his 4.7, seems backwards to me . . . (not that i doubt you guys, its just odd)

 

I got that just this week doing highway driving with mid grade gas in the tank and just cleaned out with SeaFoam. I also have my SuperChips programmed to economy these days when I'm not pulling my trailer.

I think it may have something to do with the altitude also now that I'm in FL instead of the hills of TN.

 

yeah the air is thicker at the coast widow, thicker air helps with power and mileage. more air to be sucked in because its denser. you know what i mean lol

and No lies sharp i'm getting 13.2 mpg average in the summer and like 12.6 in the winter. This has been its worst winter. its always gotten mileage around there though 12.6-13.2 mpg. which is what the sticker says roughly. And when i get highway driving i get 16-18 mpg like it says.

 

weird man, idk what to tell you, but in stock for i definitely think you should be doing much better than that, and widow should be doing a lot worse (sorry, man, hope i didnt jinx it)

btw i dont live at a particularly high elevation either, maybe 1000 feet, max, probably more like 500 most of the time . . .

 

Hopefully you didn't jinx it however I'm back to pulling vehicles on trailers so I didn't get too used to the nice MPGs. LOL

 

Well yeah sharp I'm out in the twin cities in MN, i think I'm roughly 1000 ft above sea level maybe 1100 ft? so possibly double your guesstimate of 500 ft? unless of course you are higher.
