I'm in the same boat.  My dealer told me it will take another 3000-5000 miles to adapt.  Since we're already 11,000 miles into ownership that doesn't make me very happy.  We were getting 40-42 mpg before the update (in non-winter).  Now we're at 36-38 (obviously with occasionally good runs that exceed that).  WTF........ :-(

Is this for real?  Where did they get that number?

Not surprising that they told me that; it's consistent with what we were all told when we bought the cars: "It will take 3-5K miles before the adaptive driving capability has really kicked in.  I have subsequently talked to the Ford Mother Ship.  A technician in the hybrid group told the CSR the same thing.  The Adaptive Driving was wiped out; the reduction in MPG is not unexpected.  But things will improve.  It does not explain why some of us are experiencing this and other aren't.......The CSR and I agreed that I would monitor the situation for 30 days and then report back.  Of course, if I can't climb a hill I'm not going to wait 30 days...........I'm driving to Maine and back on Friday so that will be a good test.  I've gotten 47PMG on that run (keeping it at 60-62.  Will be interesting to see what happens.......

That sounds like the way mine is now. Just drove it to Virginia over the holiday and was getting passed by semi trucks in the mountains. Got a a hole 28mpg for the trip 400+ miles. I JUST LOVE THIS UPDATE!!!
