I have a 2022 Badlands 2Dr V6 Auto but non Sas. I drove about 250 miles over the weekend, mostly mild wind, and got 22.4 MPG. I do run stricktly 91 octane and the only engine mods I have are a CORSA Cold Air Box and Cat Back Exhaust. Only mild Cali Foothills but still, is anyone else getting this kind of MPG?

23 Wildtrak, 4 Door, 2.7, 93 octane, 2500 miles, 4.70 gears, Nitto Trail Grapplers, Hills of East Tennessee,
17.9 mpg hand calculated...
the Lie-O-Meter States anywhere from 14-42 mpg... haha
Edit:
I had a 2021 BD, 2.3, 7 speed, 4 door, with this same set of tires and wheels. 4.46 gears... 21.0 mpg
2023 Wildtrak, Iconic Silver, Hard top, ordered 10/5, built 12/13, delivered 1/18
I'm in CT to and there is nothing. Although the roads are such crap that much of it seems like back roads.
Ha.. I have the misfortune of going to Wallingford,CT 1 week a month for work, and let me tell you your roads are 100X better then the roads in PA. You don't need to go to Rausch Creek or FRO to be off roading in PA, just drive RT422 or Schuylkill expressway...
Ohh and I get right around 20mpg 2dr 2.7 non-squatch
just so you know, that gauge is not accurate. If you track your miles driven and fuel consumption per fillup, you’ll probably see that you’re closer to 17.5-18. I say that based on my own experience
Agree. And if you want to get super nerdy... you can track it!!
Obviously not super impressive because the Bronco doesn't have many miles. But here is an example from my 2013 Focus.
Super helpful data to have. For example... in 2021 I noticed a dip in my MPG on my Focus. That was likely largely attributed to the pandemic and no longer spending time on the highway. BUT... it triggered me to replace my spark plugs. You can see the MPG has rebounded a bit after I replaced my plugs.
2022 Wildtrak has almost 7k miles. 91 octane and mostly in ECO mode on <50mph roads. 21mpg when I try to soft pedal thru the Kettle Moraine area, lotsa hills. Wifey gets closer to 17mpg in sport mode. Roush axle back and air intake are too much for her to resist. 😁

Basesquatch 2.7 DR. 19.5 MPG all around average over 18k miles, I use 91 octane only. As Calgecko mentioned I check it with actual miles and gallons used and its around 18.5, about 5% less. I don't care. I get 20-21 highway, pretty good I think. Were talking pennies per mile here. Drive your truck and enjoy it!! There are thousands of people waiting for their Broncos who would give up anything to get their truck, I know I was one for 688 days.

Yeah that's about what I used to get with a stock 2.3 non-Sas BL, 22 hwy, 18 city. It's gone down significantly with each mod.

OP.......23 is GREAT! I think the highest I've seen personally is 21ish.
Looked up the averages on Fuelly, here's a screen shot. Keep in mind this is all three engines combined 2.3, 2.7, 3.0. You can filter by engine on their website. I suspect the B-Raptor and any towing Bronco's are closer to the 12-13mpg and the rest of us B's between 17-20mpg.

Wildtrak w/sas and 2.7, 10 spd…. Avg for normal round town and small country road driving is 17.6. Thats with a/c on and occasional idle time at ball parks watching grandbabies. No highway or interstate trip yet.
2023 Wildtrak, sas, mid, soft top. Not crazy offroader…. Just a normal trail junkie
