I know you have a 250 but with the T-5, you should be getting over 20 mpg on the highway.
What type of rear are you running? My guess (from the photos-10 bolt ) it's a stock 2:73 ratio.
That is why your not getting any power in OD. If you swapped the gears to a 3:55 ratio, you would get a dramatic off the line power and great top end too.
I know my 292 adds a lot of low end torque, but at 65 mph, 31" tall rear tires, and a T-5 with a 0.72 OD gear, I'm getting 18-20 on the road @ 1850 rpms! In town, only about 14-16 mpg.
