The Definitive Ecoboost vs GT gas mileage thread

[gamecoc430]

For the OP, just be aware that the miles driven will reset to zero at 10,000 miles. I was using trip #2 to keep track of my all time gas milage, but it reset at 10,000 miles (2017 GT premium). YMMV

My FBO e85 tuned(Di+Pi) Focus RS averaged 15.1 MPG in the 2 years I had it and my limited bolt on Mustang GT has averaged 18.6 MPG over the last year and some...

So yes I purchased this V8 to offset the terrible mileage my turbo 4 was getting!

I have had the 2018 GT since Jan of 2018 and finally after having it for 2 years I was able to take it on a road trip.

The wife and I drove from Northern Virginia to New Orleans for New Years and had a blast!

This is the best MPG I got over 335 miles of driving. Everything else was a bit lower, 21-24 MPG because the wife and I were flogging it most of the time with average speed around 80-90 MPH for majority of the trip.

This last stretch of driving was from Abingdon, VA to home in Manassas, Virginia. The drive was through hilly areas of the Appalachian Mountains driving on I-81. The cruise control was set at 75MPH and I had 93 octane in the tank. I manually measured the MPG after the trip when I filled up the gas and the computer is spot on with its measurement.
