MPG

[ender2664]

I just drove 470 miles from newport to tucson and I did it on one tank. When the speed limit was 65 I was averaging 39mpg and when it was 70 and 75 I was averaging between 36 and 37.
WTF!? The window sticker says 26! Is anyone else getting this kind of milage?

I havnt taken any trips of this sort to find out. Would be nice to get those numbers though

[m.wood0213]

yeah ive noticed goooood gas mileage. If I do straight calm highway ill easily get 35mpg, but if i do the same city ill get abut 26mpg. However if I play too much itll go to 22-24 city.

[g0lden]

i'm averaging 25.4mpg. I get into the gas a little much

I once got 43 mpg, I got the picture on my phone to prove it I had to drive extremely conservatively to get it though. Driving from Houston to Austin

Damn thats crazy, best i can get 320 miles to the tank, even when on the highway.

[Rich@ViscontiTuning]

That's really impressive.

Best - ~400 miles in one tank.

Worst - 116 miles in one tank. That one hurt but was so much fun.

Yes, its drastically different. My morning commutes are a bit spirited. 5:30am, light traffic. Find I average 27 most of the time. On my way home, I take a different route, mostly highway at 65mph in 6th where I get 34mpg.
Sunday morning rip up to the beach and bagels gets me 18mpg.

Im seeing lots of ATs getting around 40mpg on the highway at lower speed. Not sure how horrific the AT gets when throttled up. The MT encourages you to ride around 4000 where MPG starts to drop off sharply.

My RSX AT was more consistent but about the same.

The CLK would NOT break 21mpg and on play days it was closer to 14mpg.
Not much better than my Pathfinder or Navigator.

The MPG potential was one of the deciding factors for me!

I spend LOTS of money on gas!

I was not going down hill, I actually gained 1/4 mile of elevation over the trip.
I just set my crusie controll and let my car do the rest.

I've been averaging 28 MPG in the city driving to work and back and that's with 80% city driving and about 20% highway.

If you really want to track it, use Fuelly. It's more accurate than the dash MPG. I've had the dash one say over 30 MPG and entered my gas info and it was actually 28 MPG

@ender2664 do you have an auto?

Yes please use Fuelly, its more accurate. my car says i average 31mph, but my fuelly app say i average 29mpg. Which is about right since i get 320Miles to the tank. Not trying to be a ****, but im skeptical.

When I'm easy on the car, I'm getting about 30 combined. Last tank I just finished break-in so it was less

I just watched a review last night that even made the comment that these cars were getting better than advertised mileage which is awesome! I actually do a lot of street driving so when I saw that I was getting 30mpg I was like and then I was like
