Should I be getting better than 14 mpg at 75 mph?

You have a 07? I would think it would be a little higher.:4-dontknow:

I recently logged 7k miles and my mileage has started improving. I was stuck in the mid-15's and now the console (haven't calculated by hand yet) is consistently reading 17-17.5 MPG!

I averaged about 18mpg on my '08 with MDS. That was a combination of state hiways that run through a few podunk Arkansas towns, and I-30 (at about 75MPH). I guess it was about a 150-180 mile round trip.

I'll typically get 12-14 driving back and forth to work. That is mostly around town driving, but there is a stretch of about 5 miles at hiway speeds, then another 5 miles or so that is at "in town" speeds 25-45MPH.

I figured that I bought a truck, didn't expect great mileage.

good luck
