This could be fun. I'm certain we all have more than one licensed car or truck for the road.
Govt is mandating this 58 mpg by 2032. I was curious how I rated today. Remember this is licensed ICE vehicles for on road use only.
Combined meaning city and highway. * = most miles per year. ** second most miles per year
Ford Transit diesel combined mpg 18
VW diesel 45 mpg combined (his) **
Factory 5 Cobra 15 mpg combined
Porsche 27 mpg combined
Honda 30 mpg combined (hers) *
Ram truck 22 combined
Averaged = 26.17
Looks like I better buy that motorcycle :LOL:

Hers:
Toyota Avalon Hybrid- 41 mpg
Land Rover Defender 90- 15 mpg
We are both retired and barring an accident, these will be our vehicles until the end. I'm too lazy to figure out my "average" mpg. I don't think I cover more than 30 miles a week at this point.

36 MPG, Thats both the 2017 Hyundai Accent and the 1993 Ford Festiva. They get about the same. My motorcycle gets 58, but is not included, because I only ride it rarely these days. And when I do ride it, I pour on the throttle.

The Cub Cadet LX2 is a bit of a mystery. Wish some one on youtube would run on one with 1 gallon and see how far it went on a road, with out engaging the mover. I think it gets 14 or so.

2017 F150, 4x4, 5.0. 18.5 mpg
2019 Chrysler 300c 5.7 hemi. 23 mpg
2010 Dodge Challenger 5.7 Hemi. 19 mpg

All the above vehicles can get better with highway driving but I bet the above numbers are pretty close to the lifetime average.

2019 Ram 1500 Classic, 5.7L, 4x4, Crew cab, full sized bed (6'4" I think); 19 mpg; over the coarse of many may miles. Some trips might hit 20-21, and others down at 18, but over time, 19 is the number.

Wife's 2019 Charger RT 5.7L, gets between 22-24, depending on how much son drives it...

Our driving is semi rural, between 10-40 miles each way, 45-65 mph roadways.

Work car, 2020 Ford explorer 4x4, 25 mph, not sure on other set up, but its proof that idealing doesn't hurt the milage That much. Maybe if I drove it like a personal vehicle, maybe it might hit 27-28 mpg, but it ideals when doing computer work, ect, and probably total, it runs 6 hours per day, over the coarse of a few months, either driving or idialing

This is fun and I'm a hyper miler at heart anyway..

Focus RS 6 speed hatch = 40.1 mpg Mine)
F350 Turbo Diesel 7.3 4x4 = 21 Going away soon...

My KLR 650 ADV bike gets 75 mpg but that don't count.

Just moved across the country. My truck, a 2020 Tacoma, got 22 mpg originally. Now it gets about 18 mpg. The wife's car, a 2016 RAV4, got 31 mpg before; now about 23.

I had several cars, all stick shifts, that got 45 to 50 mpg. One got 55 mpg at 55 miles per hour on a 1000+ mile trip.

Hovers around 30mpg - rural highway and gravel roads. Highest I've seen it was 33mpg - highway trips.

1978 Chevy Suburban 454. Last I checked - 11mpg, towing the race car, lumber or empty - doesn't seem to care.
