Yeah i have some short trips that do really kill the mpg. When i do drive it to work 42 miles each way it gets around 23mpg.Well.........I drive like an old man, because I am one. I run about 65 on the expressway & for the most part take it easy around town. Another big factor is that I rarely take short trips in my truck. In my experience, it takes at least a few miles to get up to optimum operating temp & efficiency.
I averaged 20.6mpg with my 2015 157" 4x4 with the 3.5 Ecoboost over 235k miles, including very occasional towing. I regularly got 21.5mpg, right up to trading it, unless there was some extenuating circumstance, like hauling, towing, off road, etc.
