mpg method

[cs_88]

I have used Broncos as my daily driver in the past and found myself only caring about gas mileage in regard to when I needed to fill it up.
I enjoyed them too much to care about fewer miles per gallon.

You should remind yourself to always enjoy driving your Bronco, if you want to obsess about gas mileage drive a Prius.

You must make more than me.

Maybe the best way to get good gas mileage is to just lie about it.
Pick 20 mpg. That's a good round number.

When my 70 had a 3-speed, 3.54's and 33" AT tires I could squeak 16 MPG out of it. But that was a longer trip and driving mellow.

Then I went and put 4.56's and 37's on it. Long gone are the days of 16.

I will say that tire size and type as well as speed have a lot to do with it. I have a 2013 Ford F-150, bigger lift and 35's. At 55-60 with the mellower tires I could get close to 15 under ideal conditions.

Now with more aggressive, heavy tires driving the same I get 1-1.5 MPG less.

I love the Toyo MT's, but they didn't help my MPG any. However they helped everything else.
