Add a catback…that’ll help you reduce that mileage a bit .

Seriously, with about 2100 miles on mine, I haven’t been out of the 18’s - albeit, I don’t get a lot of long term highway miles right now…

do a small pull. then post the number again

Best I've gotten on highway is 22.6. I was surprised. My average is 14 to 18 mpg If I don't have my foot on it.

Seeing the same. Nice surprise.

Dual injection really is the best of both worlds. Nice to see

First road trip with the whipple and best mpg I've seen since:

 

[SSuperDave]

I've averaged as high as 33 on the highway at 70-75 in my '24.
Daily, around town, normal use is about 20-22.

I'm guessing you've got the 10 speed with the 3.15 differential.

26.2 is very impressive. You can more or less maintain that number and still have fun with it with this setup though, so feel free to (if you're not already) go exactly the speed limit and never put the pedal into the floor.

Oh no! Not another fuel economy thread

Still, here goes - Best = 23.3USmpg. Worst = 12.8. Average since new = 17.8.

Put in Drag mode, rev it out and report back Miss Daisy.

That is about what I get on average. Yesterday was exceptional, after a fill up I made a 30 mile trip on cruise, good tail wind and 200 foot elevation drop, I got an indication of 28.7. I did not know it was an economy car. That's on regular gas to boot. Oh yes foot down on entrance ramp and passing a couple cars, that I caught up with but could not get around.

OP here. No need to worry, guys . . . I'm havin' lots of fun with this Ponycar. The tall, skinny, pedal on the right gets plenty of workout.

The mpg cited above was just one tankful, where I had a mostly freeway run up to & back from our lake cabin. My overall average is about 21 -- still pretty good, but . . . not TOO good!!

NO ONE should be boasting about the fuel mileage in a Mustang!... unless it is LOW MPG!

I get less than that without a Whipple! Glenn
