wow... I just got 225 mlies before the light came on, the worst yet. I havent been going into work for the past 2 months and so any driving is down the hill to sbucks and around town, and then back up a big steep hill with about 8 miles to the gallon...

the average right now says about 14.5, and yes, its been tuned up with all maintenance done. I have gotten as high as 24 on the freeway with a light foot and long range cruising right after fill up.

I dont abuse the car..mostly cruising so i'm just curious what everyone else gets to see if i have a problem that needs to be taken care of somewhere. It seems a little too low - i was expecting to be in teh 16-18 range.

Car is stock by the way in regards to the performance side of it.


i got 01 GS430 @ first i noticed bone stock with 93 unleaded mixture of luca fuel injectors i would get 17 mpg and now i got a k&n drop in filter and still mixing it in i get 15.8 mpg for city my 10 cent put in the jar =]
