03 4x4 Edge 32x11.50's. When I get 17 mpg I'm singin a song! Mostly 15-16 mixed driving. Thought about dumping the 4.0 and dropping in a 4BT. I know full sizes that get better.

14-15 currently.
06 fx4 level II, body lift and 33" MT's
its winter which means lots of idling, and colder temps mean less mpg.

i was getting 20 on the highway with 32's
will see what i get with the 33's come summer.

My gas mileage is all over the place. I get as low as 11.5 mpg (off-road, 4WD low range with a lot of steep climbing) and as high as over 20 mpg (2WD on interstate wit 33" tires at around 72 mpg with some elevation decline). I average around 15 mpg with 4.56 gears (was 16 mpg with 4.10 gears) around town and 18 mpg highway mileage (change in gears does not seem to make a difference). I average around 14 to 14.5 mpg towing my race car in a low enclosed trailer.
My truck and where I live is in my signature and avatar information.
