like everyone said, do your maintenance..otherwise you will be getting great mpg when your walking to and fro..

i average between 19 and 21 city, 25 to 26 hwy...but somedays depending on how i'm driving, i might get 15mpg...need to lay off the go-pedal if you know what i mean

ok , so far after changing out 2005 oil, filter, tranny fluid, filled up my sub-frame, diff bushing with poly urethane, spark plugs, and alignment..still with the Kaaz 2way differential.

i ve been getting 360-375 from full to dead dry.

thats a slight improvement, over 310-360 miles.

i ll change out the belt and pulley bearings, and from experience, that should bump it up a little better. i ll keep posted.

from full to right when the gas light turns on i get at least 400 with regular driving. mix of city and highway.

when i bought the car in 2006 i picked it up in florida and drove it back i was averaging 500 on 18-19 gallons. that was mostly on cruise control and at about 75-90mph.

the way i calculated accurate mileage was drive on a full tank and zero out the trip meter. when the gas light just turns on i go and gas up. the mileage you rack up on the trip meter divided by the number of gallons you put in to the tank is you average gas mileage.
