9 MPG !!

Wow, your getting great MPG for how your driving, I really don't get how I'm getting such bad MPG. In my area I fill her with 93oct.
My first RHO that had an engine failure I was averaging literally 9mpg.. it had a faulty fuel injector that flooded the engine and caused it to hydrolocked the engine.

Not saying that’s the case with yours 😂. It would have failed a long time ago if this was the case

Man, if you were only getting 10mpg with a Rebel on 33s, it simply has to be your driving situation.

I got 15.5mpg on my Laramie with 35s, and I just now bumped up to 15mpg average wirh my RHO at 1250mi

Dude must drive like an insane person
 
I drive more aggressive than most others on the road; but if there is stop and go traffic, I’m not launching it every time I have a few car lengths free ahead. With that said, I get mid 13s mpg with 80% city driving and being aggressive.
 
A little over 7000 miles. A mix between highway and city and i drive it like i stole it and the computer says 15.2 hc its 14.8
 
I would say I'm moderately aggressive on the gas pedal, how can you not be? ~4500 miles, mostly city, and I'm getting 12.1.
 
Just over 2k miles and im around 12.5 for lifetime MPG, slowly going up as motor breaks in.
 
This was just a couple days ago. It was mixed driving, in town, country roads and interstate. I seem to be hovering in the mid 15’s for lifetime.

Just got back from about an 800 mile trip towing my boat to mille lacs and leech lake... averaged 11.9 for the whole trip. My gen 3 would get about 13 pulling the boat on the same trip. Overall I'm pretty okay with the mpg's... although I do miss that extra 3 gallons in the tank.
 
With my DS tune on level 2 and towing my boat I’m getting over 12mpg. :)

I know I didn't but this truck for the MPG.
But I sure thought I was going to get better than the average 10 MPG that I was getting on my 2020 Rebel before.
I drive daily on the roads of Long Island NY, noting crazy mostly going through street traffic. But after 2500 miles the best I'm getting is average 9MPG.
Just looking to see if I am the only one?
I'm at 16.5 mpg over life of truck (about 1900 miles). Split between country roads 30-45 and highway at 55-70 mph with the occasional WOT for merging or from a stop -- but I seldom if ever use sport mode as the transmission fees wonky and sometimes doesn't want to upshift. Very annoying and disappointing since out of sport mode the turbo lag is huge and the truck feels pretty lethargic - particularly compared to my daily driver. Mileage is better overall than my prior Tundra 5.7 by about 1 mpg-- but hard to compare because I drove my Tundra way harder because its transmission had its shit together -- always. In this truck, anything over 70 mph triggers boost and mpg immediately falls into the 14 mpg range. I think this is at least partially attributable to the inherent drag and parasitic losses of a permanent AWD system and a motor that doesn't seem to have much torque off boost. The blunt shape and 325/65s don't help either, but I think it is primarily the AWD causing this. I still like the truck from the value perspective but just think it could have been better with a 2H setting and a larger displacement motor.
