Wildtrak Sasquatch Lux 2.7L, 315/70/17 GY Territories. Was averaging 19.9 through about 5000 miles but recently did a lot of beach driving. Great times, and impressive performance in the deep, loose sand.

Yes! I love driving my Bronco. Unfortunately, as you can see, I don't have a lot of time to take him through his paces. Hoping to change that this coming spring.

Hard to see but that says 22mpg rolling in and around Key West. Around here we usually get 19-20. I will take that.

I like to look at fuel milage a bit different. The lower fuel milage I am getting the more fun I am having. I aim for as low as possible.

Thank you all for posting MPG - It's more smiles per gallon!!

Yeah, no one buys a Bronco for fuel economy. We didn't know what to expect. My rides have ranged from V8 half ton pickup getting 12mpg to inline 6 diesel at 26. We would've been happy with Bronco doing 14 or 15, so almost 20 is unexpected.

I have a daily commute that is approximately 50 miles round trip. Most of that is Highway and I have found the sweet spot to be right around 50 mph.
Accelerating on green lights is rarely over2200 rpm. I do get mother fekked by other drivers for going Amish out of the gate, but it works for me.
I also religiously drive in eco-mode. The ok button on my steering wheel is getting some wear from this as it asks me every damned time if I want to return to that mode. 🤔

I have the 2.7L, SAS Bsdlands with the TrailRax roof rack, light bar and side racks and get 13mpg. I do run 78-83 on the highway. The roof rack dropped my mileage by 3mpg.

That 22mpg was after we removed the factory rack. It seems like 3mpg is about how much we gained by going rackless.

I hear ya, I could watch the gasometer drop in proportion to the speedometer rise in my SVT.
