My '96 F-250 PSD, 3.55 gears manual 5-speed 4wd reg cab long box averaged about 18-1/2 mpg highway, Interstate cruising 72-74 mph. One summer with larger 255-85R-16 all terrain tires I averaged 20.1 to 20.4 mpg over 10,000 miles, never dropped below 20.1. That truck is consistent on mpg! If I slowed down to 65 mpg bet I'd average 19 or better all the time.
I think I'd need to run about 22-23 mph to equal B&D's wife's MPG. People must really think we're stupid but we're not THAT STUPID! Dad and I had Mom's 1972 Impala 350 V-8, 4-door sedan up to 24-25 mpg for a while. every 3-4 days we'd add 4-5 gallons of gas to the tank, she worked 11 miles from home and normally got 12 mpg. She drove to work over a month before she figured something was up!
My 2018 Ram 1500 with the Hemi and 8-speed auto, Quad-Cab & 4wd and street tires averaged 16 in Interstates running 75-80 mph. It only had 200 miles when I started that trip, and 560 when I got home.
SON bought a 2014 Ram 2500 CTD 4wd Megacab 3 yrs ago, it would average 22-23 mpg at 75 mph on Interstate with cruise on. Had to get it deleted, kept throwing code for contaminated DEF, dealer got hard to deal with. I don't think he's getting that good of mpg now, but maybe he is. Hasn't taken a trip since deleted.
