Hey, the best I have had is 15 something in the city since I got my Edge. I havent taken it on the highway yet, next week. Mine says you shouldnt run a performance tune unless you run 92 octane. Do you have an 87 performance setting or youre just running 87?

im not running an edge. i threw that thing out, it caused truck to break down twice w/ under 6k miles on it.

i am running a vmp xcal 2 w/ an 87 gas, 87 performance and 93 performance. edge i think its level 1= just shift points level 2= mild performance? (still can run 87 i think) and level 3 is the performance= 93. its something along the lines of that.

That is sweet. You get unlimited gas!


Lol jk. But why do you need the gas guage to calculate milage? You fill up complelty. Reset the trip meter. Next time you fill up completly divide the number of miles by gallons of fuel you put in your truck.

I have only had my 07 SCREW 4x4 for two weeks and can't be happier. The first tank I recorded 15.3mpg around town. I had the chance to make a 400+ mile trip this weekend and recorded 19MPG there and 20MPG back running 65-75. On yes, it has the 5.4 3V with a 3.55 rear. Only mod is a K&N air filter installed before the weekend trip.... I also have a 150" wheel base....

I'm getting 16.3 city and 17.2 in the country. What I really like though is, because I live in the mountains and only a very short distance from work, how many weeks go by before I have to refill my tank...
