No 2005 Ford Explorer gets good gas mileage. If you have a V8 and are getting around 14 city & 18 highway, then that is about average. The V6 gets a little better but not much. Keep the tires inflated to exactly what is listed in the owner's manual and on the driver's door post. Start off slowly, and drive the speed limit. Remove all unnecessary objects from the vehicle. Make sure to replace the air filter every 30,000 miles. Other than that, there is nothing much you can do to increase mileage. This is a heavy SUV and these type vehicles are gas hogs. If on the other hand you mileage is way below this then you may have a problem and it may be time to visit a professional. Mileage has allot to do with how you drive.
