I drive my truck 60 miles a day to work and back on the freeway i get around 18.5 mpg and when in the city about 16.5 mpg these numbers are not off of the edge i calculate mpg off mileage and gallons to fill it but the edge is really close when i read what it says im getting. I have LT245/75r17 just a little bigger than stock and run them at 50 psi. I also have a full K&N cold air intake and SLP performance exhaust and usually drive my truck in towing level 2 with the edge evolution. Oh and Also i have the stock 3.73 gearing in my truck. Hope that helps

Is your edge running on canned tunes or did you pimp it up to the Gryphon with custom tunes due to your CAI and exhaust.

just canned tunes haven't done the Gryphon upgrade yet gonna wait till i do headers and high flow cats. Theirs no need to upgrade till then in my opinion I've had my truck dyno tested to check for lean conditions and not once did it run lean in any parts of the test but i will for sure upgrade when i finish my exhaust because that will cause a lean condition at that point.

according to my edge w/level 2 tow setting, im averaging 13.5-14.5 in the city, depending on traffic, etc...

i have an 07 screw, 6.5 bed, leveled, on 35 Xtreme MT's, 17x9 wheels, 3.55 stock gears. i have what you might call a "spirited" driving style, but i dont speed much. i also keep her clean and waxed reel gud, so that helps aerodynamics a whole lot

For the last 2400 miles, I've kept a spreadsheet record of mileage. I get a cumulative average of 15.0 mpg. This is mostly highway driving at 75 mph and about half of it had four adults in the cab and quite a bit of baggage/food in the back. It's using my custom non-tow program and the odometer is accurate.

As you can see from my sig, I have a cap that adds a lot of weight and some wind resistance, since it is about 6 in higher than the cab.

Before I got my programmer, my mileage was close to 2 mpg less, and the truck was a whole lot less fun to drive.
