I drive it... not with a light foot, but also not with a heavy one either.
I'll get on it now and again, but for the most part I'm going to and from work....
Mostly freeway driving...
I really think it's the weekend city driving that get's me... My average mpg, is around 20... which I don't think is bad, but the end result is chiping away at my Amaco card...
BTW, I don't know what the tank size is.

I'm getting an average of 19mpg. I'm very happy with that for a V8 musclecar!

Just to add my 2 cents here, my '97 Cobra vert averages 20-21 mpg, highway driving, roof up (and it's well broken in) So getting 20 mpg with a new GT would sit fine with me. I just wonder what milage the new vert will get....

I was just flipping though my last car and driver, and noticed that the milage ratings for the new corvette (in the corvette vs porche article) were 1-2 mpg better in both city and highway than the mustang tested in that issue.
I relaize we are comparing apples to oranges, but I found that kinda interesting.
