MPG Drop?

[ShadowChas]

My FX4 with the optional 235/65/17 falken's (no eco mode) had listed as 29 hwy on the sticker & in summer regularly get over 30 mpg's... the new tremor does have the lift of an extra inch, but hopefully for you should NOT change that drastically.

can easily activate it via forscan like FX4

Of course, just not standard.

My take is that there will certainly be a difference in MPGs compared to my truck. Your package adds a significa

Another reason mileage is different is the FX4 and Tremor do not have an Eco or Sport setting in their driving modes.

This MPG rating was the icing on the cake that made me cancel my Tremor order and switch to an FX4. My XL with 4k tow , 2 inch lift and 245s was bad on gas. I couldn't imagine 4mpg less.

I averaged 21 mpg, usually less.

4 mpg less is getting into realistic v8 territory from a truck that can only tow 2k lbs is shameful.

I didn't go down to a 4cyl for this kind of crap mpg. It doesn't even have the lower 4k tow gear. The Fx4 has the same tires and the sticker says 4mpg difference. That is messed up.

are you under the impression the only difference between fx4 and tremor are a lift? I noticed you left out almost the entire package and reasons why gas is lower. The “same tires” isn’t what the MPG hit is from.

if you’re looking to tow 4K, this is obviously not the package for you.

My Lariat Lux FX4/4K with 245s was barely holding 23mpgs and I drive fairly mellow. I traded it in for a f150 with the 2.7 and that's averaging 21.5mpg.

I figured my hybrid lariat hood release out when I saw X2 on the hood release!

Pickup plus suv talk’s review only got 19.9mpg after like 300 miles of driving. It blows but oh well.

Thanks for sharing. I’ve never heard of that review source, I’ll check them out!

Hi All. Excited to share I have officially received a window sticker!! Woo hoo! However, I noticed the MPG shown on the sticker seems a bit less than what was projected during ordering. Curious if anyone has gotten real life MPG data yet? Was expecting more in the 27-29 Highway range, not the 24 shown on my sticker. Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

On my 2023 EB Lariat I get 23-27 around town and 30+ mpg on long turnpike trips. Highest I ever got was 35 on turnpike with Cruise Control on.
