The 4x4's are higher in the air, that's one small ding on fuel economy. Also, many 4x4 owners end up putting on wheel/tire packages with much much more rolling resistance, and that's another ding on fuel economy. A big one actually.

+1 on the motor breaking in. I just rolled over 14k on my 6.2 and have seen it go up 3-4 MPG from when I bought it. It's all about keeping your foot out of it though :)

Not much. City yes, but I drove 2500 miles all highway at 75mph and averaged about 16.5mpg. Those tires really kill it.
