Other than cosmetic changes, the Crown Vic’s/Grand Marquis are relatively unchanged from 1992-2008 (2006 being the last Crown Vic). The motor is exactly the same = 229hp 4.6L modular V8, same trans, same rear gears, etc. The 2003’s have aluminum front crossmember/suspension components. I could see a marginal difference in the '03 & up cars due to the lighter weight, but not 13 mpg difference.

The link I posted was for an '04 CV, using the '08 rating methods. The new ratings have proven very accurate. Sure, there’s ways to beat it by a few MPG by totally changing your driving style… but not by 13 MPG when the rating is only 17 in the first place.
