i've gotten 26 highway, and get about 20ish in town?
the highway was with a filthy airfilter and a coupla races and that was before my exhaust, so should get better than that now.

not really that much(but you know how it goes with mustangs )

I try to keep it below 2500 rpm when accelerating. usually about 2k though.

Do you think there is something wrong?

i've been getting horrible gas mileage in mine lately, i guess it feels like it because i've been doing a lot more driving lately
but maybe the gas companies are adding something to the gas that only effects 4.0ls to make them get worse gas mileage to buy more gas?
i'm going with that
and i think it's the exhaust that killed my gas lol i like to hear it to much

I'd be afraid to take the spare out. It would be my luck that I would get a flat that same day

My First post, so hope it comes out ok. MPG on the v6 with a mix of city and rural driving is consistently 23.5. The GT is a hair better. I limit my heavy foot to once per tank LOL.

You can probably go with AAA or anothe service that will change your tire for you, you just gotta call them. It only costs me 3 dollars a month and I took out my spare tire. so I figure that the cost will balance out, but I will have a little less weight in the car so I can go that much faster.
