RHO range and MPG

[h4zegrey]

Picked up my RHO Monday night. Left from NoVA to FL Friday with 120 miles on the Odometer.

First 400 miles Friday, horrible rain, lots of stop-n-go, when the rain finally lightened up a bit I picked up to 80 to get to the hotel after 11pm and mileage was in the mid 14s for the just over 400 mile drive.

Day 2, Saturday, Florence SC to Canaveral Fl. 470-ish miles, averaged 16.3. Was a bit higher but had some traffic that dropped me a tad. Flat land and constant speed and leveraging the assisted self-drive helped a lot.

I should clarify, day 2 I kept it set at 75 unless I really had to pass.

8th gear kicks in at 65, at least so far, maybe that’ll change now that I’m getting the odo up to 1k miles. The sweet spot for mileage seems to be in the 65-75 range, anything above that is a death knell to the mileage. Buc-ees in Florence with 3.27 premium (93) on Saturday morning sure was nice for a fill up.

Fuel up #13
Mileage: 5507
MPG: 15.05 Hc
75% Highway with stop and go traffic
Cruise speed: ~75mph

This tank had multiple launches and Highway pulls for intake testing.

Interested in seeing what the next fuel mpg results will be with the intake and normal driving.

Now that we have people picking up their RHOs and driving them in the wild. I want to pose this questions for people that have got their RHOs. What is your in town mpg? What is your highway mpg? What is your computer calculated range? For us TRX owner that are still on the fence it would be nice to know the real world range and mpg that owners are actually seeing with their trucks. We all know how the epa’s mpg never matches what the truck actually gets. I also aware that these trucks haven’t been broken in yet. But first impressions would be appreciated for those are about to get an RHO or still deciding to order.

I have 7100 miles on my RHO , gas mileage around Town is 14.7-15, Highway is 16-17 depending on how much you get on it and boy it’s fun when you do. Range on a full tank full is between 490-500 miles. The catch is here you must use premium 93 octane. Which they don’t tell you up front. Started filling up with 89 and the turbos were hesitant, 93 no problem .

They do tell you up front. Right on your fuel door.

Not a lot of 93 around my area it’s mostly 91 here. Hoping that doesn’t cause any issues when the truck gets here. I’d it gets here after all I’ve read with the tariffs etc. recent order within the past 3 weeks.
