Great to know. My Lariat EB with 4k is in "Final Prep". It's nice to see km/l. I know the break in may take a little time
How long did it take you to start seeing mileage like this and how fast are you going on highways? Riding on Wildpeaks?
That’s very encouraging. One day, when or if I ever get mine, that’s the trailer I’ll be looking at.You hybrid guys, chiming in on an ecoBoost only thread... but can you tow!? That 4K tow package is pretty sweet. I repeatedly got 23 to 24 mpg (Imperial) towing this camper, around 20 mpg US.
... and with the AWD more useful in winter. I've been getting 7.3 liters/100 kms indicated combined recently, in real world winter conditions. That's probably 7.5 actual, 37 mpg Imperial, 31.4 mpg US. Crazy good fuel economy IMO. When it gets really cold out, fuel economy suffers, but that's normal. My wife was torqued recently as our Maverick has been getting better fuel economy than our Corolla! Can't imagine what guys get for fuel economy on big gas full size trucks.
How did you get that truck icon underneath your mileage? Is your truck a 2023 model or Lariat? I have an XLT 2022 without that truck icon there.45 minute highway trip. Mostly flat with some elevation changes. Not the highest it's been but close...I need a longer trip to see if it will flatten out. on another outing, I hit 33.4 for a brief moment but, my trip was ending.
That's an FX4. It has the bigger display in the instrument cluster. So Does the Lariat and Tremor.
I have the Fx4 which has the same 6.5" screen as you albeit not Sync3. If it was on there by default might be with that Sync3 software. I might have to check the settings on mine.That's a Lariat. It has the bigger display in the instrument cluster.
That's when you are on adaptive cruise control. You can see that from the green speed setting on the low left corner. Not sure if it's available on any trim level or only on AC360 Lariat level.
That explains it. Reserved for Lariat Lux vehicles only. Thanks for clarifying.
That truck image is from the adaptive cruise control being on and indicates that there is a vehicle in front of you that is in range of the sensor. Ford uses a truck image in trucks with adaptive cruise control a car in SUVs
I'm far from qualified but I would assume a lot of it is just aerodynamics at that point. All things being the same a truck traveling 75 is going to get better mileage than the same truck going 85+; because air modules don't care, efficiency changes or not.
