The best i've ever seen (hand calculated) was roughly 28.6 mpg on a 300 mile round trip all highway/interstate. Cruising at 75 on the interstate with a few bursts up to 100 or so & staying at 60 on the highways, 55 if no traffic behind me. Around town it's awful since my foot likes to go to the floor quite a bit. Driving is 90/10 (city/highway). Still gets better gas mileage than my previous 06 F150 Supercrew 4x4 & is a lot more fun to drive so no complaints here.

90% of my driving is loading and unloading off the trailer, straight to the tree, down the track and back on the return lane. I'm impressed that I even get 9-10mpg.
