2002 Explorer XLT V8 94,000+ original owner miles. I've been keeping a running spreadsheet from day one. Lifetime average this rig is 16.75 MPG. Worse in winter with snow tires and aftermarket steel wheels or dragging a boat. Mixed city and highway driving (more the latter). Best is 20+ MPG on along summer trip driving at 55 MPH just as a test. Slow acceleration (not jack rabbit) and cruise control at 65 MPH (not 75 MPH) can make a difference.
