i drove from Rhode Island to Louisiana in my 1995. It would give me about 400 miles to the tank on 100% highway. Thats 24mpg which is pretty good for such a big car. But in city my mileage is crap. I filled up last week and my car has run about 60 miles and is on half tank. all these numbers are a/c on and driving pretty hard (highway about 90-105mph) and city pressin it everytime i get a chance.

I get pretty poor mileage in the city 15mpg, but I am lead-footed. From Los Angeles to San Francisco, I got 25mpg (but I was averaging 95mph).
I did notice a drop off in mileage, but after putting in a new cap and rotor, the mpg increased by 3-4. Just stick with Lexus parts, most others are inferior.
