Please report on your Endeavor's gas mileage here.
  
Include your odometer reading, city/highway mix, driving style or anything else you think may help others compare their mpg with yours. Thanks!

2004 Endeavor purchased new 1/2005
 
Odometer - 11,835
 
Recent trip consisted of 3 legs:
 
Leg 1: Saratoga, NY to Conway, NH
       266 miles / 22.74 mpg
       (Includes a lot of back roads driving.)
 
Leg 2: Conway, NH to Ogunquit, ME
       121 miles / 20.72 mpg
       (Includes 45 minutes stuck in traffic due to
        the road being shut down due to a large accident!)
 
Leg 3: Ogunquit, ME to Saratoga, NY
       278 miles / 21.57 mpg
       (So I may have been pushing 75-80 mph at times!)
 
City driving is usually around 17-18 mpg. I use Sunoco Premium. What I lose in gas mileage is more than made up by the comfort!

What is the octane rating of Sunoco Premium? and does it contain ethenol?
Recently we had an interstate trip from MN to Iowa when we recorded about 20.5 avg mpg. Used top grade of Conoco (I think 92 octane and including 10% ethenol).
We now have 19,000 miles on our '05 since purchased new 12/05. Previous recordings of mileage were during cold/winter months. Cold may have had negative effect on mpg. Also breakin period may be longer than expected.
Am not unhappy with road mileage over 20.

Sunoco Premium is 91 octane. They also have Ultra 93 which is 93 octane. The difference in price is usually 2 cents a gallon. No ethanol as far as I know. And my mileage always goes down in the winter. I'm told it's due to additives they put in the gas for the cold weather here.

I think they are snake oil; if they worked, the manufacturers would be using them to help meet their CAFE requirements. More in the Gas Saving Gizmos & Gadgets discussion.
