MyStang2010GB

This car is my week-end warrior, cruising car, and show car when I have the time. It has had nothing in it but 93 octane since the 2nd tank (dealer filled with 87). The 87 pinged some on hard acceleration and I just prefer to not run it. Gas is on the rise again and 93 octane ain't cheap.... but I will continue to run it.

I am averaging 19.3 in combined city/hwy driving.

I know that i didn't by my '11 gt to be fuel effecient. I bought it to drive the heck out of it and thats what i do. I use an 93 octane race tune and i dont mind paying the price for 93 octane since i get to drive a awesome car. I'm sure when the price gas gets higher i might start to drive it less but right now. I drive it as much as possible and its a DD for me.

Surprisingly I've been getting 18 mpg in my largish town... Which is pretty much the same as my v6 Genesis Coupe...

However I'm doing A LOT more gas saving techniques lol, I don't gun it at every red light/coast a lot more/turn it off on long lights

I am surprised when I read GT500 owners getting 19-22 avg mpg when that's what I get in my GT. What, are they rolling everywhere? Only upgrades I have are 3:55's and AB's. how is a car with almost 300 more HP & SC get the same MPG? I drive very conservatively most of the time except weekends around town.

After 18 months I'm getting 14.2. Pretty sure I'd get single digits in a GT500, lol.

i was getting 14 - 15mpg in my'13gtAT before tune. after tune i m at 17 - 19mpg. drving in city/highway combined.

Driving very spirited I get about 15 or so on a Brand New Car, and I hit quite a few stop lights no matter where I go. Driving like a complete ******* back from Houston on I-10 I was getting 20 or so.

Sure, it would be nice to get more MPGs, but if I was concerned with that, I would have bought a Prius.

My v6 manual is a daily driver 70% in town and rest on the highway.....so the fill up this morning....Dash indicates 20.7 average but the math shows that last tank at 24.6 mpg. I have had a few road trips that I am seeing by the math between fill ups in the high 20's.

Every fill up and I have done this on every vehicle I have owned, I track....date, miles from last fill up, gallon put in, total cost, cost per gallon. I know to keep my revs down below the 2k mark and life is optimum.

I LOVE my Pony...

I was not\am not worried about the MPG... its nice to complain and gripe but I will always love my sports car.

That's what I'm saying. Revs under 2k? You'd be in fifth just as you cleared the intersection lol.

I'd love to spend less on gas, but I don't let it get to me. My car tells me I get 18.0 mpg. Good enough for me.

My attitude on MPG? I also bought a 2012 Focus and I drive that when I want to save gas. But mostly drive the Mustang and don't care about the mileage too much with this car.

I drive my '14 GT about 10k miles/year. I'm getting an average of 18mpg in mixed driving...

Figuring I would be getting 23mpg from the V6 with the same driving, I would save about 120 gallons of gas per year with the V6 vs. my 5.0. Even at $4.00 a gallon for premium, that's about $40 per month. Given my 5.0 puts out about 120 extra hp (I have a tune) vs. the V6, that's a cost of $0.33 per horsepower a month.

So for less than the price of a cup a coffee per day, I get a huge grin when I make the tires break loose in 2nd- I'd say that's good value for the money!

I only have about 1800 miles on my 14 and I'm getting around 25mpg cruising on the highway and 18-21mpg around town...just depends on how much I want to enjoy the sound of my exhaust at each light

I may not have as big a "carbon footprint" or burn through as much oil as Al Gore, but I sure try to every chance I get!
