Worst Fuel Efficiency in America.

^^^ I'm not so sure why it showed up like that...but..

So the Raptor has made the list of the worst fuel mileage. No Kidding!

I've only got about 1000 miles on my truck, but so far I'm averaging just under 10 MPG.

I guess that's the cost of a little fun :)

there coming out with 85 octane gas and trying to get us to use it. e-30 is way better I will quit driving before using 85 octane gas. they already put ethanol in that crap to get the octane up so watch your station use the cheep e-30 over the cheep 85 octane gas. If enough people ask for blender pumps they will get them!

I have about 2000 miles on my new Raptor. We went for a 1400 mile round trip to NC this past weekend. I got around 13.0 calculated on the highway on the way down. In NC I found a station that had gas without ethanol in it. That tank got 15.2 calculated for the next 344 miles. When I filled up with e10 again, mileage went back down to 13.1. Calculated average total is 13.2 so far.

ya ^ that's why I use e-30 your getting crap gas with e-10 because they can get rid of their crap gas using ethanol to make it work it sucks.
You can tell the deference driving behind some one that uses ethanol and some one that doesn't by the smell. non-ethanol cars stink.
with e-30 your mileage is back to the same as non-ethanol gas. ask me how I know.

Ford is now voiding warranties if you use gas with 15% ethanol and up. Yes, I said void. I think it applies to the powertrain portion only though.

I've only tested regular gas, e-10 and e-30. regular and e-30 is the best.
