[quote author=BIG&amp;BAD link=board=10;threadid=9577;start=0#91567 date=1042491608]<br>does anyone know what kind of mpg a 454 and 460 get?? <br>[/quote]<br><br>I had a 93 Ford F250 with a 460 in it. It would get around 11-12mpg empty and about 7 loaded. It ran great, but the mileage was horrible. I'm sure being in the mountains of Colorado had a lot to do with it as well, I think.
