I've got just over a 1K miles on my 2.3 4-door OBX. All city driving and I've come to the conclusion that ECO mode is a liar. I switched to Sport and put in 91 octane. MPG went from 18.4 to 18.7. Sport mode is just fun!

What's your city/hwy driving mix? Not sure if it matters that much since the spread is relatively narrow.

10% or less city.

Mostly Highway driving (50-70mph) and country road driving (40-55)

We have put over 7,000 miles on our Bronco (Badlands with 2.7) and are getting 20.6 mpg.

Update:
Travelled 400 more freeway miles and the mpg jumped up to 20.8.

4Dr Base Sasquatch 2.7L - Exactly 17.0 mpg

Most of these were highway miles driven in Normal mode. Sasquatch definitely hurts.

It looks like you are getting about 350 miles between fill-ups. Just curious if you are filling up before, after, or right when the low fuel light comes on. In addition to MPGs, I like to know how many miles per tank, from a convenience stand point. My 3rd gen 4Runner is super annoying on road trips because it can't get 300 miles to a tank.

As a side note, I like to use Fuelly.com to see how others are doing too.

MPG on my first gas tank:-

4 Dr 2.7L engine, stock wheels (non Sas)

Using ONLY Normal mode in 2H in mix of city/highway (%70 more city driving) and keeping it under 3500 RPM for the break in period .... i haven't breached 80 MPH on the highway and city driving has been the normal stop n go 15 to 50 MPH .... i had passengers about half the time but no extra weight other than that

Computer gizmo says 20.8 mpg
Math says 21.08 mpg

pretty dang close

Similar experience.

4dr, 2.7, BD
Drove 60mi home from the dealer, speeds below 65. Computer indicated 21.8mpg

Yes, it is a rocket and that's the way I describe it to people.

Gonna guess my 2dr w 2.7 will be a blast to drive! Haven’t been in a nonsquatched 2.7 yet. Much less a 2dr like what I’ve ordered.

What speed do you drive? Big difference between 70 and 80 fuel economy
