Hello all.
The beginning of last month I purchased a used 2002 Sport Trac. It's the 4WD model with the 4.10LS rear end.
The first tank of gas, all city netted around 12mpg. The second tank was almost all highway and it got a hair over 20mpg (whew!), the third tank all city 17mpg, the 4th tank all city 13mpg, this last tank all city 10mpg.
What the hell is going on? If this pig is going to get 10mpg it is being put up for sale. I sold a 2002 F-250 with the Triton 5.4L that got more than 11mpg and it was sweet as hell.
I am disappointed in the fuel consumption. It is obvious it can get up to 20 on the highway, why so crappy in the city?
