But I get 29 on the freeway in my 4WD FEH (exactly the EPA estimate amazingly)......The 4WD 6cylinder gets 17 on the freeway... For some reason I can't get to the ford site right now but I think the 4 cylinder 2.3 non hybrid is rated 24MPG.....

Why is my hybrid hwy so horrible vs an equivalent weight ICE only vehicle... It still seems to have an advantage... just not as large of one.
