I have never gotten better than 15 so I think you guys getting 16.4 have magic raptors. I can only get 91 octane maybe thats why.

15-16 mpg is not unusual at all in my SCAB with 91 octane (no ethanol). Although I have pulled off 17+ on a couple tanks and one was with mostly like up to 10% ethanol. I think the fun part is I can get 14-15 mpg easily off-road when I'm just "cruising" dirt trails at 50-80 mph. The truck computer actually underestimates my mileage usually. I fill up and do the math all the time. I don't drive it like a race car on road though (not yet at least lol!).

Sorry excuse my ******** but what is e-30?

And then....I went 65-75 ~ 16.4MPG on mostly flat some long distance hill curves but after stop n go for four days in LA going 65-75MPH ~ 14.8MPG

I pump regular gas though....so I have to try the 91 octane see what that does next time I drive down there

Thought I would make everyone feel better. My other car gets about 4 miles to the gallon of 104 octane gas at 5.99 per gallon.

Oklahoma to Ohio and back about 1750 miles averaging 75-80mph I got 13.5 mpg both times I had a strong side wind hitting me both ways. I have an ADD Venom bumper and it has dropped my mpg by .3-.5.
