2572 to be exact. i live in the austin area and my wife and i just got back from a round trip to milwaukee. on the way up to dallas and east to hot springs arkansas i got 19.9 doing 65-70. took scenic route 7 from hot springs arkansas to branson and got 17.1 all mountain roads with steep grades and switch backs. worst mileage of the trip was coming home on the turn pike in oklahoma running 85 i got 16.4. other tanks on the trip were anywhere from 17.5-19. not too bad for a 6.2 4x4 3.42 crew!

broke down to 21 cents a mile if anyone cares

Was this with the air dam on or off?

all miles with air dam on. i was going to break up the trip and get some miles with out the air dam but decided to make the most of my time and keep driving.

That's great! I can't wait to test my 3.73s on a longer trip one of these days.

Thanks for the report

the extra piece of plastic on the lowest portion of the front bumper. also known as valance.

i was very pleased with the numbers until i hit 80+ mph. if i had to guess i'd say you wouldn't be too far behind me. you are a little less weight being ecsb vs ccsb.

that's some pretty decent mileage! how many miles are on the truck and is it stock?

smrr1

bone stock and now has 4572 miles. it is running so much stronger than the day i purchased it and mileage is a lot better too.

nice mustang. those notchs are my true passion. don't have one right now but i've had plenty and will have more.
