Fuel mpg: daily - 24-27; short trips (100-200 mi.) - 26-28; winter daily - 21-26 (lot of idling); and, long trips - 5000 mi in Mar. 08 was 27-32 depending on the leg. On the open country interstates the mpg eould start to drop if I exceeded 69 mph see full Ford Five Hundred review

Trip to Florida from WV 29.4 mpg. On the way back, 28.7mpg. I avg. about 24.5mpg back and forth to work, some in town driving (15%) mostly rural (85%). For an AWD and the size, this is fantastic. see full Ford Five Hundred review

I am currently averaging 20 MPG overall with heavy highway use. For the size of vehicle I think that is rather reasonable. see full Ford Flex review

1000 miles of ownership so far, 21-22 mpg in light suburb and highway driving, 24-25 mpg on 500 mile trip (fuel economy measured by calculating miles driven divided by gallons of fuel purchased). see full Ford Flex review
