  1. 47.5 MPG on Big Bend using Eco Mode 🍃

    I agree, staying in the far right lane for hours can become very tiresome. I'm usually in the second or third lane staying out of the way of the Auto Bahn crowd in the far left. This trip was really just to see the maximum potential of the engine and if the mods I had done were worth it. My next...
  2. 47.5 MPG on Big Bend using Eco Mode 🍃

    31 mpg is still good for what the Bronco is, a brick with wheels) My trip was over 95% hwy/freeway, 3' above sea level, flat and level, 80/90 degrees. I have a custom exhaust, custom intake, higher tire pressure and a few other tweaks that help increase mpg. Plus I used Intelligent Cruise 95% of...
  3. Dipstick QR Code

    Okay amateur sleuths out there I've got a riddle. The engine dipstick has a QR Code on it my phone cannot read. The code is probably just another code for the part number OR maybe another Easter Egg that Ford sprinkled thru-out the Bronco. If anyone manages to get a read on it let me know what...
  4. Crankcase under boost conditions

    The UPR CC I use is plug and play, all u need is a Allen wrench for the mounting post. A ten minute install, really simple. I only use oil analysis when I suspect a problem. So far no reason to suspect a problem. I just had my oil changed this morning at my Ford Dealer. The tech called me over...
  5. Crankcase under boost conditions

    For the original poster, ignore the less then helpful posts. There are lots of enthusiasts like you with inquiring minds, that is the intent of this forum, that and to share experiences with the BS. Concerning the Catch Can: the videos are not of a 1.5 Dragon although the concept applies the...
  6. 47.5 MPG on Big Bend using Eco Mode 🍃

    Hello, you are confused, I drive the speed limit too except when entering the Freeway and opening it up. I'm also a power guy on the side, in Sport Mode my BS screams up ramps, more so than any other BS I'm willing to bet. I digress, it seems you missed the part in my previous post where I...
  7. 47.5 MPG on Big Bend using Eco Mode 🍃

    41.3 MPG!!!_ I did a day trip today to Key West and made a effort to channel my inner hyper-miler the whole round trip, all 353.8 miles of it. I filled up at 0537 in the morning in Hallandale (north of Miami) and was on my way. My peak mpg going down was 47.2 mpg, returning my peak was 46.8 mpg...
  8. Removing SPORT Badge

    Hello, I removed the Sport letters on mine, looks cleaner, more refined. I removed the OB badges as well. Use dental floss, works great. If there is any adhesive left use a bit of Goof Off to clean it up, wax the area and good to go.
  9. Solved - 42 Inch Crate Fits. Big Dog Owners Rejoice!

    Holy Hairballs Batman, are u sure that dog will fit when he's finished growing.
  10. 10,000 miles and 22.4 mpg

    I read these posts and have to wonder how certain people plain deny you cannot improve this engine and cannot see past the window sticker and engine specs. True motor heads look at a engine and think this baby has potentially way more then meets the eye. Same goes back to every engine produced...
  11. UPR Catch Can installed

    Just finished installing a UPR Catch Can. The excellant quality of this can is evident from first glance. Every component is made from the best material available for the application. There's plenty to choose from, some quite a bit cheaper but if you want the top of line version this is the one.
  12. 10,000 miles and 22.4 mpg

    The oil additive I use is called MOA 115. I added it about the midpoint between oil changes. I was on the fence about what to use, between MOA and Liquid Moly Ceratec. Both have excellent reviews on Amazon. After using MOA the annoying tik that is common on Eco Boost engines almost disappeared...
  13. 10,000 miles and 22.4 mpg

    Wow, looks like someone needs training. Best to at least have the same in all four. I pumped mine up to 36, I immediately noticed a slightly harsher ride. Some people go to 40 which must feel like Fred Flinstone tires.
  14. 10,000 miles and 22.4 mpg

    Yes, just north of Miami
  15. 10,000 miles and 22.4 mpg

    Some people like to argue just for the sake of arguing. Here's the proof Now this milage avg is only since I filled up about 100 miles ago. It will go down now that it's the weekend, I'll be city driving till Monday morning. It'll slowly edge up to 40 again by next Tuesday. I live in Southern...
  16. 10,000 miles and 22.4 mpg

    It's hard to say why you are getting poor mileage with the information or lack of you put in your post. I would rule out any mechanical or sensor issues due to the low mileage, it's possible but unlikely. Still if u suspect something get it checked out, it's under warrenty. The biggest factors...
  17. 47.5 MPG on Big Bend using Eco Mode 🍃

    One last thing to add. My oil changes are free. I ran across a add for a FordPass Visa Card awhile back. The perks are absolutely the best I've seen on a card with no yearly fee. I use it for everything, the points add up fast and pay not only for dealer service but with plenty left over for...
  18. 47.5 MPG on Big Bend using Eco Mode 🍃

    That's true, my milaege will drop down over the course of the week to the around 33-34. Its the weekly avg. number that establishes a true trend line assuming that the same type of driving is calculated week after week. It's that weekly number that is moving the trend line upwards for me. I...
  19. 47.5 MPG on Big Bend using Eco Mode 🍃

    Hmm, interesting comment. This is a forum to share information, somestimes useful sometimes not. It's generally a fun forum amongst good old boys who are Ford enthusiasts from a early age and new Ford guys and gals coming on board. Your rather obtuse comment kinda goes against what this forum is...
  20. 47.5 MPG on Big Bend using Eco Mode 🍃

    You're probably right on that. I don't expect I'll be going downhill both ways to work) On my weekly commutes and adding in my weekend city driving my averages have been on a steady upward trend. Just before filling up yesterday my weekly average was 33.4 mpg. I fill up after dropping below the...
