Get a little 30+ MPG car and park the Bronco except for those day's you can't not drive it :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Keep your foot out of the gas pedal... Umm, how much MPG do you want? The best I've "heard" is 14MPG... I personnaly get right at 10 so I have a to/from work car and the Bronco for fun...

In would like somewhere around 14.... I was told they get around 12 stock. 10 is crazy for my every day driver.

I agree with bidi if you want to increase MPG buy a small car. my bronco with a 2 barrel carb gets 9.5 MPG on the highway.

My 302'd daily driven bronco with about 146k miles gets between 10-13 mpg. Since I believe in the "you get what you pay for," when I get my oil changed, I throw 2 bottles (1 bottler per 16 gallons, and we run a 33 gallon tank ^_^ /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> ) of Slick 50 high mileage cleaner in. Best advice, don't rocket off the line and don't abuse the brakes. Take your time and let the truck ease into and out of speed. It's not a ricer, after all... :p /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I have a 302 and i get 14 mpg. of course this is when i dont get it off road and i dont try and drive it like i have a 302 in a mustang. which is almost never.

Just thought i would tell everyone and gloat a bit.

But my Bronco isnt lifted and i am running on stock tires right now. :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> oh well.
