How many miles to empty on your 2011 5.0 dash read out.
I have a weird question for all. I had to have the fuel pump replaced under waranty after getting it back the full tank is 255-260 miles to empty no matter how much I try to put more in. B/4 the repair I had apx 305 -320 miles to empty on the display. Not a big deal just wondered what every one else gets when you fill it to the max. not a big deal just curious.

I noticed that the "miles to empty" display is calculated based on your driving habits. I drove my 2012 GT across the country and after several fill ups it nearly showed 400 miles until empty. This was observed during 3 days of driving on the highway with cruise control.

The miles to empty gets worked out over a period of time, the longer you leave it before resetting it, the more accurate it will be. With that said if you drive for weeks "pampering it" you will get a high miles to empty, but if you then drive it hard for a day it will still show say 300 to empty but infact you will be empty a longtime before hitting 300.
I get 22 mpg on average with a mix of around town and some highway, however when I go on long drives with hours on cruise control and reset before leaving this goes up to as much as 26-27.
