I do.

I press reset, let off the gas and get 50+ mpg, then snap a picture!

250 miles. Max 70 mph on cruise. Ended the run at 25.8 avg. I think it would be 26+ if my wife hadn't needed to pee. Women!

Never ever seen mine do that, except how 06yz250f said. Then again FX4, 3:73, 20's, & crew cab don't help the matter

Yeah, I wish I had some flat highway to do that on ... my usual road trips take me up the PA turnpike and its mountains. Going through the mountains at 65-75 mph, I usually get about 20 mpg on the way up and 21 coming home. Averaged about that yesterday, even with the crawling traffic. Love my EcoBoost!

Austin,

I have a SuperCrew 3.5L V6 Ecoboost 4x2 XLT. My axle is 3.15

The trip was from Atlanta to south Ga. 4.5 hrs. First 3 hrs was interstate with the remaining 1.5hrs on state divided hwy and two lane roads.

I ended the trip at 25.8mpg which is about where I was at when my wife made me stop on the interstate.

Wow, the 3.15 rear axle sure makes a difference. Best I can muster out of my F150 is 23mpg, 24 if the wind is blowing the right direction. I have the 3.55 locker.
