I'm considering a used 17 King Ranch with the 3.5. It's got just over 9K Miles. The dealer let me take it til Friday. Driving an hour and a half back to CS on FM roads and highways, using the cruise when possible, I averaged 15.8 mpg. I wasn't gunning it. Cruise was never set higher than 76.
The trip in the truck hadn't been reset in over 5k miles and the fuel economy was nearly identical to what I got on my drive.
So my question...is this the best I can expect from a truck that is supposed to be getting around a combined 20 mpg? Googling shows almost no one gets the epa estimate, but nothing as terrible as I got today either.
