15-16 at 80 mph on winter blend and 13 in town. Haven't noticed an increase in mileage with the mods I have, just a sweet power increase.

I get about 16-19 on highway and get 13.5 towing 10,000#. My dad's excursion just got 18.75 on the highway at 70mph. It is stock as far as mods go but has a 4" lift and 315"s on it. My brother gets about 17.5 -19 around town with a superchips programmer he hasn't checked it on the highway yet.

sorry for the jack, but i thought the 7.3's were supposed to get awesome mileage, like 25+ mpg when chipped? or are those people just full of it?

Never have heard those numbers. The lie-o-meter is the culprit for those high numbers, you gotta hand calculate your mileage. ULSD and winter blend seem to affect mileage.

over the course of a full tank, setting the cruise at 55mph while on the highway, the lie-o-meter will read 18.5, but thats 75%-80% highway use. and miles to empty when filling up, closely mastches the trip at the next fill up. Not bad if you ask me. Can't wait for a chip.
