Usually high 3's and I do usually run it in Sport+. I like hearing the Coyote :)
lol - that explains a lot :D

3,000 rpm and up makes that mpg go down pretty quickly, especially with Sport/Track on. Addictive, though, once you get used to having that extra grunt....

My average over about 25.5k miles is 18mpg. My typical daily MPG's are 15-18. Lowest was around 13. Best over the course of a tank was 25-26mpg. I've had two tanks of gas where i've gotten over 400 miles. The 18 mpg is indicated and I trust it due to the fact that I actually got better gas mileage than my manual calculations due to the speedometer reading about 4% low. Adjusting for the speedo error, the computer calculation was accurate. However I now have new wheels and run 285/35/19's which are about .7 inches shorter and the speedo reads about accurately now, at least what speed the cruise control says. My speedo and cruise have never really matched :doh: The computer calculated mpg's are now about .5 mpgs under manual calculations. I will adjust the engineering mode accordingly in the fall when I return from a trip but so far very pleased with my PP's MPGs

I used to run in Track and sport mode all the time, but since the beginning of the year I've been keeping it in normal most of the time. I really don't like the unlinear nature of the throttle mapping in sport mode. The step ups are drastic and a minor throttle adjustment changes it too much. They should have just done a simple multiplier than the mapping they used. Then I would actually like it as it would be linear. Normal is much more predictable.

I have definitely noticed a difference in MPG's dependent on your driving mode. I hope the reasoning for this is obvious to everyone, I really don't think an explanation is needed for why you get worse gas mileage in sport mode lol

16 GT/PP. Run 92 octane. 12.2 to 12.3 mpg average. Mostly driving around suburbia with speed limits 25mph to 55 mph. About 20 miles per day.

Ive been thinking my mpg is particularly low...
Maybe a tiny bit low.

Mine is 13.7mpg over 6,000 miles, but like you I MAYBE have 100 highway miles and the rest city 0-45/50mph.

On a recent round trip from Las Vegas to Phoenix, averaged 27mpg on 91 octane. Kept up with traffic with a few spirited moments...
Normally 16 mpg avg with 80% city driving. GT Auto 3.15.

I went on an 8000 mile road trip last april and averaged 23 over the trip, but peak was using ethanol-free 91 octane and got 28mpg around 65-70mph.

We're in the same boat. Hardly ever take mine on the interstate and I just usually tool around town and in the country for some spirited driving.

I was averaging around 14-15 mpg then I got a tune and now it is 13-14 mpg.

Thank goodness for people with Priuses!! :clap2:

Don't feel that bad, my post was about a trip of almost all interstate. Now that I'm home, driving around town, I'm at 12.7 mpg.

I did a 40+ mile trip a few weeks back and averaged 31 +/-.

I took a pic of the MPG. I will see if I can find it.

I did 65 with the ACC on. Overall I average in the low 20's. Keep the RPM's between 1500 and 1700 and you can do pretty well.

I don't have a commute so no stop and go traffic to drop my mileage. I do occasionally get on the gas for fun of course but just occasionally... because I can. :D

PS: 89 octane. 3.15 gears.

Filled up with some 91 in the sticks, averaged about 65 mph including some stop and go traffic and stop lights. All in all, about 20% city 80% highway got me 23 mpg in a PP car with 3.73 gears. In the beginning I was feathering the gas and going the speed limit in 6th gear at about 60 mph and getting just over 26 according to the readout.

I average 12-13mpg on e85, but it only cost me 1.69 a gallon. On 93, I average about 16-17mpg. Yes, I can get 20+mpg but its no fun to drive.

Finally snapped a pic of the mpg of my 2016 ecoboost with AT and 6200 miles on it, first 10 fill ups were at 87 octane, everything since has been on 93 octane.

I drive like a complete idiot most of the time, am I really cutting into my mpg or does it seem about right to most people?
