[QUOTE="Robert Howell, post: 1016992, member: 70748"] The 4.0 doesn't need 91 octane, 86 works just fine and it's cheaper. My wife's 2001 Sport Trac gets worse mileage than my 4.6L Adrenalin on the highway, at 110 KPH her's revs at about 2400 while mine will be just under 2000. Your foot is the biggest factor on fuel mileage, after that would be tire inflation, type of tire, engine condition, dragging brakes. If it is tuned up and driven sensibly then the best we have ever got is in the 17-18 mpg range. [/QUOTE]
