Took me a little longer than that to get better mpg...
Give it a few months... at first I was getting around 12.5-13 lol... now I never get less than 16.5; and on grandpa mode I get 18.5 combined

good to know i was definitely hoping for better mpg. big reason i opted for the e torque etc was because it had one of the best mpg ratings against its competitors.
Not to and from work. Most days traffic flows but it can get a little stop and go some days.

Avg 15mpg on my exclusively city driving commute. A bit disappointed as a lot of the commute is 40-45mph which is a pretty efficient speed (30-40mpg "instant"). My last car averaged its "combined" EPA rating on this route so very sad to see less than city rating. Normal ride height, no bed cover, cruise at 40-45mph, Grandpa mode?, 87 vs 89 gas made no difference.

I'm seeing an average of 17 mixed driving just around town and rural areas. I have a 2020 quad cab with bed cover.
