Lots of variables to consider here. First, I'd check your tire pressure. Make sure they're not under-inflated. Also, what kinds of speeds are you doing on the highway? I took a trip to NY from Baltimore Friday and did 70-80 the trip and managed 26.3 mpg with 7 passengers. It definitely seems like you should be getting more than 19.5 for highway. Or is that your average? I think the main thing to note with the explorer and especially these 4 cylinder turbos is its tough on city gas mileage getting this heavy SUV up and running. But once you're on the highway running, it's pretty efficient. Even loaded down at high speeds.
