90% New England commuter driving on state highways, which means light turns green and zoom up to 60mph and then hit the brakes for the next light a 1/2 mile up the road. Repeat endlessly. Getting about 28mpg under those conditions. True highway driving gets mid 30's.


Car has ~35K miles on it, and all the fuel we use in New England is 10% ethanol.

283 miles used around 9.4 gallons 75% highway, 25% city with stop and go rush hour traffic at the 405 freeway. 30.4 mpg impressive for AT and using the paddle shifters.

There are a couple of non ethanol stations around and about. I was stopping at them pretty often but since it didn't make much of a difference in reducing the crickets and made no difference at all in mpg I got tired of paying more for lower octane and gave up.
