[QUOTE="Vic Sorlie, post: 1016996, member: 69241"] As others mention the 4.0L V6 ain't a MPG stunner, especially climbing icy roads in 4X4 in the cold. Trucks aren't very aerodynamic either - lots of drag, especially at highway speeds. Best you can do is run synthetics in your drivetrain, keep it in good tune and watch your driving habits. For Sport Trac utility you're trading away some MPG. See my syn oil article in Projects section, and you can see all drivetrain specs and capacities by using AMSOIL's online lookup found on my website. [/QUOTE]
