Hybrid Fuel Efficiency 2023 vs 2024

[Mightybeast]

Hello, I have 2 Maverick's 2023 XKT and 2024 XL. I Own then since day one. Both of them got bed cover and they Hybrids. On XL I installed bronco wheels instead of stock steel. Also I installed mud flaps, diferent type ltho. On 2023 it's weather tech and on 2024 it's Mabett. In my opinion Mabett got a bit better quantity and more flexible. But also they are 1-2 inch longer. I so keep a note on fuel consumption via app, and it's actual mpg. Unfortunatelly it looks like 2023 xlt is more efficient than 2024. With set up that I have. Now my question is any bidy experiencing same issue? I used both trucks to get to worm. So, consistency there. While my 2023 give me on average about 43mpg, my 2023 only 41mpg. Any thoughts?

Does the same person drive both trucks? I ask because different drivers could easily explain the difference.

I drive both.

Are the Bronco wheels and tires the same overall diameter and width as on the other truck? Are you running the same psi on both trucks? Any difference in width, diameter or psi will make a small difference. More likely the conditions you drove under. If you happened to have a bit of headwind or the temperature was different when you did your comparisons, that too could explain the difference

Weight difference in the Bronco wheels and tires? Heavier?

Wheels/tires are the same. They interchangeable with Bronco.
