Default it ain't great, but not terrible either

2004 quadcab, 4.7, 3.55 gears, 2 WD, 5 spd automatic: 19.5 highway, can't really say on city because I never do a complete tank without quite a bit of highway miles. Probably 14 or so.

I'm averaging about 17.5 right now. A lot of highway driving though. It will drop soon though with winter coming. Already saw our first snow...
