Numbers don't lie... I should crack 500 this tank. If you guys are getting better results w/ your 87 tune, post it up. 1/2 Tank = 271mi Just over half a tank, so 271/14.5 = 260mi til E
There is something wrong with my truck. Driving conservatively on 87 and 93 if i get 100mi to a 1/4 tank its a miracle. By conservatively i have been staying in the 60-70 range on the expressway and not flooring it at lights.
edge's are trash when you are dealing w/ mods (CAI, Exhaust, etc). I had an Evo and it was garbage after i modded the factory specs. Now I love my SCT cuz its user friendly tuning, and it flashes in the time it takes to do a fill up. I know you got an exhaust upgrade, but do you have a CAI/Gotts Mod as well?
No just the exhaust, my mileage has gone up since i got it the edge but its no where near as good as yours. I know im already due for an oil change and when i took my truck to Ford for the shaking he told me i should change my fuel filter already since its prob the stock one with almost 72k miles on it. Though all that shouldnt make the huge loss of mpg's, at least i dont think it should .
I have 80K on my fuel filter... i'm also on about 6k for an oil change. i know that if i run faster than 67, my MPG drop drastically. but if i keep the truck at 65-67, i'm gettin 18+mpg. thats weird your numbers arent higher. i'm lifted, w/ 34.5" tires, locker, and monster dumbo tow mirrors. do you have your CTS just stock 87 setting on? you didnt do any tweaks to it, just loaded?
My tires are 32's which i have set on the edge. I could go a bit slower, at 70 its around 1800-1900rpm and i tend to drive closer to 70. I also do alot of city driving, my drive to work alone in the morning is all stop and go i dont get anywhere near highway speeds or even up past 40. This was my first week on 93 at 1/2 a tank im at 200mi.
It's all that stop and go traffic sitting at the red lights. Vano goes almost all highway driving. I bet if you did a highway trip for a full tank you will see different numbers. I know mine will pull 17mpg on all highway and about 13 for all city.
Next road trip i make up to the farm ill have to keep it under the reg 80mph i do and see the difference. The edge has made my mpg go up i used to get around 11 im up to about 14 or so now but now where as drastic as vano's. My truck is stock and i thought there was something seriously wrong with it.
