Conditions; Epa Window Sticker - Ford 1998 Expedition Owner's Manual

Perform all regularly scheduled maintenance items. Follow the
recommended maintenance schedule and owner maintenance checks
found in your vehicle Scheduled Maintenance Guide.

Conditions

Heavily loading a vehicle or towing a trailer may reduce fuel economy
at any speed.
Carrying unnecessary weight may reduce fuel economy (approximately
2 km/h [1 mpg] is lost for every 180 kg [400 lb] of weight carried).
Adding certain accessories to your vehicle (for example bug
deflectors, rollover/light bars, running boards, ski/luggage racks) may
reduce fuel economy.
Use of fuel blended with alcohol may lower fuel economy.
Fuel economy may decrease with lower temperatures during the first
12–16 km (8–10 miles) of driving.
Flat terrain driving improves fuel economy over hilly roads.
Transmissions give their best fuel economy when operated in the top
cruise gear and with steady pressure on the gas pedal.
Four-wheel-drive operation (if equipped) is less fuel efficient than
two-wheel-drive operation.
Close windows for high speed driving.

EPA window sticker

Every new vehicle should have the EPA window sticker. Contact your
dealer if the window sticker is not supplied with your vehicle. The EPA
window sticker should be your guide for the fuel economy comparisons
with other vehicles.
It is important to note the box in the lower left corner of the window
sticker. These numbers represent the Range of Km/L (MPG) expected on
the vehicle, depending upon the driver's method of operation and
conditions.
