This is sweet! since gas prices round here are 1.90 for premium i told myself to not constantly floor it. 100 city miles on that tank, 250 highway. highway i went 2mph over limit. SWEET GAS MILEAGE! :D :D
 
I got you beat. When I filled up this morning I had 480.8 miles and it took me 13.711 gallons to fill er up. :D For a grand total of 35.06mpg. :D :D I granny drive alot now-a-days. Driving 300+ miles a week will make you want to do anything possible to save gas.
 
I went 360miles before i had to fill up one time. I probably could have made it another 20-30 miles.
 
Yeah, I forgot to add I almost never use the A/C. It hasn't been that hot here yet though.
 
I fill up today and I am on empty tomorrow. I just love to strp on it all the time. Gas here is $1.52 for 93. I didn't buy this car to drive it like grandma Moses.
 
Mine was mostly highway miles, with no a/c and going about 65-70. In city driving I have an automatic and it usually shifts around 3500 rpms.
 
i just check my mpg the other day. I got 25.6mpg good enough for me.
 
my overall mpg since i drove off the lot is 24.72, guess a little low due to hot and humid weather in houston. the worst was 21.09, the best was 28.32...never exceed 29:( though...
 
AC

Yes you can save gas but be sure to run the AC at least 5 minutes every month or it will DIE a miserable (flame)(and expensive (pissed) ) death.
