ditto- hell- you'll get passed by cops going 85 up here in montana- plus i dont think i could make it more than 5 miles knowingly going 55 in a 70. i'll live with my 15 mpg @ 85 mph

last time I calculated it it was like 11.5. Thats with 35s, edge, 40 series. I think It should be a little higher but it all depends on how you drive.

Trooks, what version are you running on you Edge? Mine is showing the latest one and the Edge is still showing 2 mpg better than when hand calculated, even with tires, gears, ect all entered. Maybe I am missing something.

I'll have to go look. Just updated to the latest version couple weeks ago. When I calculate the Edge is almost perfect. .

I average about 11.5-12.5. On a long trip I get close to 14. I have the Predator, volant intake and Magnaflow exhaust. My mileage is actually better lifted than stock.

If I cared about MPG's I would of bought a Toyota prius. I get about 10.5, but I mash in my truck! I do 80-95mph freeway, and drive hard around town.
