13 mpg in my FX4 2005. I have mud tires on it though. When I didn't, I average 16 or 17mpg.

50% city, 50% mountain driving here in CO.

Try coasting. You can't believe how far you can coast and save gas.

luck I average 11 all the time and i've had it for a year....not much I can do but learn to keep my foot off the gas (lead foot sometimes) it sucks but I tough it out. Better than driving my Stang in the rain or snow.

9.5-12 MPG city, depending on if it is winter or not. Tend to idle truck more.
13-15 MPG Hwy.

I blame it on the very heavy BFG's.

I get around 15.5 city on the 87 tow tune with my stock Edge. Driving habits, wheel and tire size, drivetrain, and lift are the main variables when it comes to MPG's. You have the worst combo for mileage.

usually get between 14.9-16mpg 90% city driving.. when i went on a 200 mile roadtrip, i saw around 20mpg. this was on 315/70/r17, edge with the correct speedo change. I drive like a grandpa.

I dont see much difference on 2wd tires/suspention with my 4x4. Gettin ready to put the old tires back on lol
