I'm hoping it gets better with higher mileage. My 99 didn't get good mileage until it hit 20,000 miles. Then it got 20. My 04 will get about 17 if I idle up to about 1500 then shift and keep it under 65 mph. Its painfull to drive that slow, it annoys everyone behind me also. Normal driving for me is to shift it around 16-1800 rpm and not beat on it. Also around 70-75 on the highway. the highway keeps the RPM above where it gets good mileage. Actually it has 3;73 gears The 3:54 were in my 99. They stopped offering the 3:54 when I bought the 04. they had to beat fords towing claims that year.
