I'm getting somewhere around 17 best case scenario on the highway with my 2013 LTD AWD6 w a K&N and Magnaflow installed. At first I thought I was just too heavy on my foot because I love the sound, but now I'm going to extremes to keep my speed steady at around 60MPH on the highway. Whats worse, towing a 4300lb boat/trailer over 150 highway miles, I got around 10.5.
So I'm about to go in for the first 5000 mile oil change/maintenance, and now I'm concerned that I may have voided some of the warranty by adding the intake and exhaust. Otherwise, I would mention it to the dealer and hope for a resolve.
Who knows whether or not this affects warranty? I would've thought the upgrades would have increased MPG's, not decrease them (it WAS getting better gas mileage before the upgrades).
I love the Ex, but it seems to me that an F-150 or Expedition would get same or better fuel econ.
