I Just bought a new 2011 Ford Escape and the gas mileage, in my estimation is very poor.
The car now has 2,687 miles on it and gets just under 15 mi per gallon. I drive primarily short distances during the week to and from work is 5 miles each way. Once a week I drive on the highway to visit my parents 28 miles each way. So more highway miles than city miles. I'm averaging just under 15 mi per gallon at 14.89. I'm taking the car in for the first service next week, any suggestuins like, change to a K&N filter, check the O2 sensor, anything else?
