Calculated the mileage for the first time and over 367km mostly highway going 110-120km/h I got roughly 16L/100km Or 14.6mpg. Sound about right for what everyone else gets? Dropping my speed 10km/h for this next run to actual speed limits to see what kind of difference that makes

yikes when I am on the highway which is were I put 99% of my miles I see between 9-11L/100k. To get your mileage I was doing 85mph or 140kmph on I15 last Sunday cruising in Montana.

14.6mpg at about 75mph is about 1mpg lower than what I get with my truck fully loaded. You are in the ball park tho so I wouldn't be overly concerned. The only way to improve it really is to ensure the truck is completely up on maintenance.
Plus I'm gonna put a nos sticker on the side. I hear it'll give me 10hp, and an extra 5mpg
I drive about 80-85% highway.
Doing 120km/hr (70~mph) is I average 13.5L/100km (17~mpg).
If I hover around 100-105km (60 mph) I average 12.2L/100km (19mpg) --I live in On-terrible, so, doing 105 on the 401 is not too bad, I just cue up behind the big rigs in the right lane, most are governed at 105km (another dumb law)
That is according to my EVIC
I use fuelly.com to track my fill ups. and I'm getting on average 18.3mpg with the 6 fill ups I've entered (I missed the original fill up from the dealer and my first fill up, since I didn't know about fuelly).

I also use fuelly.com to track gas mileage.

Keep in mind you have a 4th gen and are posting in the 3rd gen forum. The 4th gens get better mileage than the 3rd gens do.
Whoops, missed that part. I saw the Engine and Performance, missed the 3rd gen part.

Damn some of you alls mileage sucks lol even with my truck being leveled with 35s and about 200lbs from my sub, box and amps I can still get 17-18 on the highway. On my stock tires I've gotten 21 on road trips. Had to be a pretty flat highway though.

I drive 95% city in traffic half the time. After maintenance I'm getting 14-14.5 per gallon. Was getting 12.5 before maintenance.

How are you calculating that mileage? Are you using the overhead console only? You know that reads fairly optimistic, right?

Yeah that's why I hand calculate it lol. To tell you the truth I don't think I've ever even looked at my mileage in my overhead display. I set it on compass/temp and leave it alone. Those numbers I gave are perfectly achievable if you know how to do it. It's all in driving style. Keep in mind my truck is an 08 and has mds
