    I'll get 350ish with mostly highway driving.

    Also, I travel between Huntington, WV to Henderson, KY 330 miles one way. I think that I think I get better gas mileage when I do 85ish opposed to 65-70. I need to better investigate this a bit more, but I'm pretty sure I'm right.

    Although for the last couple weeks I've been driving my jeep and getting a whooping 18mpg! At 270 miles a tank!!

        I get about 19-21 mpg avg on country road/city driving since thats all I ever do giong from home - school -work - girlfriends house. Im sure if I could drive all highway or stay out of it I could get somewhere round 25 or more MPG but I just cant keep my foot out of it. I drive the piss out of my little 3.4 but I have to say I like it. Lots and lots of low-end torque but I just dont have any top end power.

          that is fricking crazy, i never thought that you could get that good mileage. my trip-meter in my camaro was broken so i never was able to clock it. my 4runner is at 165 miles and it is at maybe 40% tank. :(

            guess i forgot to say.. i live right outside baltimore city, the 3rd worst commute in the country and i drive 28 miles to and from work 5 days a week.

            car's not fully stock, and i think i may have a slight clog in an injector.. car gets lopey at idle but doesn't throw a code.

            I don't know.. i was happy.. lol!!!

                    hahaha
                    I would be too
                    I'm sure for the first few months you will be pushing it to the limit to see what its got
                    you are only supposed to get like 24 highway with the auto though

                      I just drove over 400 miles of interstate averaging about 75-80MPH this weekend....and at 400 miles...i still had OVER 1/4th of a tank. Since then ive driven another 60 and im sitting barely above E. Thats on a full tank of 87 octane, without using a leadfoot. I didnt floor it one single time. Its a miracle what happens when you use a light foot.

                      Thats in my '97 Camaro with 60lbs. of stereo **** in back....
