Whats your gas mileage been like?
Ford states around 30 mpg. I don`t do much city driving. Most of mine is on the turnpike to & from work. I only have 2200 miles on her, but I am getting right around 25-26 mpg using 87 octane. My car is a `13 3.7 auto convertible. I drive around 70 mph on the pike. Just curious on everyone else`s experience.

Mine is 70% highway and 30% city and I have been getting between 25-26 on the last 2 tanks. I just crossed over the 2300 mile mark on mine, but I am only rated for 29 with the manual and I have 3.31 gears with the performance package so I expected lower.
My 4.0 started getting better right about the first oil change at 4000 miles.
Mine has been getting better as it breaks in.

2012 V6 Basic Auto w/17" V Rated Michelins 31-32 mpg on Hwy 75mph 14,000 miles
2012 V6 Premium Auto w/18" W Pirellis 29-30.5 mpg Hwy 4,400 miles
Michelins have superior hwy ride and are quieter but boy you can point it where you want it with Pirellis.
