Big tow kc. 14 city, 10-12 when I use the big toe.

What about you XE's. I remember test driving an XE. It seemed like the 17" wheels made up for the taller gear. If anything, I'd say it had a littel more go. The smaller wheels probably cancel out the gear difference. When you figure in the style per mile traveled factor. I understand why no XE's have posted mpg figs.

I dont think they made many XEs, relatively speaking. At the 4 dealerships where I shopped, 90% of the trucks they had in stock were SE & LE's....I prolly would have bought an XE if I could have gotten one with power windows and doors.

If scooter is getting 14.5 in a kc 2 wheel with no tow. It looks like any difference is going to come from the tire size. There is still the driving habbit thing to figure in. It will take at least five xe posts to get a average. In time, with more posts. Maybe your question will be answered. I call it your's because you asked it first. I would like to know as well. I think's. Hopefully I won't want to go out and get 17's & a taller gear cause then I couldn't pull my trailer. Wait a minute.... Think I just answered my own question.
