Re:Fuel mileage, AGAIN!

Highest mileage I was able to achieve was 21mph with stock Michilen A/S 265/75/R16 tires and an EZ. Average with this combo was hi 19's mixed highway and stop/go. Empty driving.

Now I average 17's with BFG A/T 295/75/R16's Edge Pulse + RV275's.

A ford getting 20+ while towing is someone lying to make themselves look better.

Re:Fuel mileage, AGAIN!

You have to consider what your dealing with here. This is an insult to any person that has ever driven a vehical period. It is almost as stupid as the Ford garbage they do for the public on tv. He is probly so nieve instead of checking actual fuel mileage he is going by what the owners manual says.
