Default 250/350....scroll thru the display settings and post your "Average MPG this tank"

250 RWD....27 MPG

This was even in mixed driving....so I'm happy with the MPG!

approx 408 miles on the last tank of gas (yes the light game on).

That's encouraging... I average about 24mpg in my WRX at present (mostly highway) and was hoping to at least maintain that in the 350.

It's tough in stop and go driving, so if that's all you're ever doing, your mileage is not going to be very good relative to drivers who spend all their time cruising at somewhat constant speeds.

with gas prices going up and more cars on the road every year, we're going to get worse and worse gas mileage because of slower speeds. would be nice if they had an IS hybrid which worked off electric at low speeds and diesel at high speeds.
