Hi,

That is totally driver dependent. I could see some people getting 17MPG, I get 22 (have seen 30MPG on extended freeway drive w/ cruise).

How old is your air filter? MAF Sensor? OČ Sensors? Engine Oil? Plugs? Tire Pressure? All these things can reduce your MPG if not up to spec...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

I get 26 highway at 75 mpg and about 19/20 city. Alll with top down. I'd presume better with top up. If I have a lead foot then 17/18.

I get about 210 to 225 miles per tank depending where I drive. If I take a long highway ride instead of back and forth to work I can get over 230. That is with super from Shell.
