96 ES300 188,000 miles about 20-21 mixed city and highway, mostly small city. Highway, I've cracked 30mpg more often than not.
And as far as "another thread" goes, why not, not any different than everyone asking the same questions over and over instead of doing searches on tires sizes , clearing head lights, how to add auxiliary plugs etc.
Play nice children.

19-20 combined is what these things get. Anyone reporting much more than that is driving mostly highway or lying.

If you're getting 23 mpg combined, most of your driving is highway. In order for you to be driving over 50% city, you would have to be averaging around 250 miles per week in the city. Are you using it as a cab?

I don't us my ES as a cab and I average minimum of 65 miles per day M-F because I live 30 miles from work.

If I take the highway, it's 35 miles but if I go local, I drive 30 miles. I usually take highway during rush-hour traffic and it's about 25 miles of highway in distance per day.

I used to own a 98 Honda Civic DX and driving the same distance for 12 years, my life-time MPG was 30.76. Before the Civic, it was 1989 model year 2.0L Mitsubishi Galant LS for 9 years driving the similar distance and its life-time MPG was 25.50. I think the key to my non-winter-time 24MPG on 2001 model year ES is (with greater than 50% local driving) due mainly to only one person in the car 95% of the time. I never put anything other than 87 Octaine gas on all my cars and never felt lack of power/acceleration because of it.

Civic MPG data: (I am having trouble locating my Galant MPG data at the moment)
