Back on topic and addressing a previous comment cordially - I keep tabs on mpg to keep tabs on engine tune. When mpg's take a dive you know something is out of whack. Same reason you pull the dipstick and check oil level - just keeping tabs on the engine and keeping a lookout for trouble signs.

I would guess thats in the GPM range, not MPG's anymore

[ujslost]

ok I just put in $20 tuesday and ive almost ran it out today ( was empty when i put $20 in BTW) for some reason i've gotten alot of miles out of that $20 worth this week, more than usual, but not sure how many i didnt reset the tripometer, might just be this thread put the blessing of the mustang gods on my fuel!

if you stayed home and post here i am almost sure that your mpg would raise

[ujslost]

If it's a diesel it probably gets twice what I do. The 4.56's killed my mpg. 10 city 13 or 14 hwy no matter how I drive it. OK, not really twice, but that thing might get close to 20's with a diesel. Not that I'm trading.

That's how I ended up with a Stang. I was pricing new 3/4 ton crew cabs and Suburbans. They were so damn much more expensive than my 99 that I refused to sign the note. In short, they were not 20K better than what I already had so I decided to get something fun. Now I've got a paid-for truck that tows my boat and hauls my family and gear to the coast and back and a muscle car too.

I did NOT consult my wife. I just did it.

Saw one of those at the car show two years ago. My nephew was 9 then and he could stand up inside that thing and there was room for him to walk from one row of seats to the next. You had to lean way over to pass something to the person in the passenger seat.

ha.... i bought my mustang as my commuter car....i live about 30 miles outside of the city i work in and my silverado only gets about 17 mpg on the highway...so i drive the mustang to my work truck...oh ya almost forgot its got the 5.3 liter in it ....awesome 4x4 mind you...now i got the best of both worlds....and the mustang gets way better mileage than the truck and way more fun to drive....livin the dream.....i love my car

[stal94gt]

not sure how most people get such crap milage but i get 17 mpg. every one must be keeping their foot into it way to much. im not saying i drive like a grandma cause i get my moments where i get my foot into it even still with the occational flooring i still get around 15 mpg.

[TaintedStang]

Woot! Doing CPR on a dead thread.

[MT0911]

Since we are reviving this thread... In the mustang, I average around 17-23 mpg depending on how I'm driving. But in the Vette, I average 25-31 haha. Well, who cares about gas mileage anyway lol.

[Jobra]

lmao there has been so much thread grave digging as of recent.

anyways, yea. My GT got about 250 miles a tank with maybe 3/4 driving done in the city, all highway I could get close to 375. So I'm guessing thats 24mph highway? 16-18 city.

[Tang Stang]

With 3.73's in my '04 GT, I've been averaging 22 MPG with about a 50/50 mix of city/hwy. Mine is my commuter car, too. My F150 gets 14 MPG, and the XR7 gets anywhere from 9 MPG to 18 MPG depending on how heavy my right foot is.

[Jobra]

I wish I had a DD. I want this with a lil supercharger on it



- the homosauce flames on the side

[2VSouth]

Not sure on my exact mileage, but last time I got gas, I reset my trip counter and had to fill up after I hit 245 miles on that tank.

[grubiaco]

25 mpg on the highway 14 in the city consistently.

I totaled one of those when I hit it in my old Audi. I spun that tin can around three times but everyone was ok. I saw the new euro spec version at Road America this summer and it is awesome. Ford really upped the trim in all its lines over the last few years. Now the GFs pops wants one of these to commute and a new GT to SC and wants to give me a smoking deal on his 07 GT (he bought it on the fam discount). Sooooo tempted but I just can’t justify it this year.

But back to the MPG. I got 16 mpg on the first tank in my car and then the second I got like 13.5 mpg. I was having some fun with the car but I’m wondering if I have a bad 02 sensor. Anyone know if you can test them?
