    Gas Mileage

    Just wondering what you all get for mileage on your 4.6's. On mine (technically still my grandmothers), the on-board computer reads 16.5 MPG average. There are currently no mods on the car. What about you guys?

    I get around 18 or so, mixed highway/city driving in my 2003. I have no drivetrain mods.

      if i beat the hell out of her, i'll see 9mpg. if i gently touch the pedal and only cruise the highway, i can see up to 30mpg.

      your numbers will fall in between these.

      on average i'll see about 17-22mpg.

                I get about 13-14 in town 19 solid highway. I can never break out of 19 for some reason. Shitty power, so-so gas mileage and no hauling space or 4x4 like a truck. Someone tell me why I drive this car again? LOL

                The 03 gets 22-25 highway and about 18 in town. His old 2000 GM got 33 Highway.

                    Usually around 15-16 in town and with the cruise control set at the speed limit of 65-70 mph, I can see 27 on the highway. That's using what the trip meter says when the gas gauge reads half a tank.

                        Thanks for all the responses. I don't have the 94 anymore, but 16 wasn't great. I'm sure it was so low because at the time of the reading I was doing nothing but cruising around town. I'm in the market for another panther now though, should be soon enough.
