I was getting 15.7 but now that I put my new muffler's on, I'm getting 16.2. I'm also a leadfoot. ^_^

What have you guys been getting per gallon?

When I was driving about 80% streets / 20% freeway I got about 16.5-17. The past 2 months I haven't driven the freeway for to long I'm down to 15.3.... I don't even drive to crazy; my city is just full of stop signs and hills. I bet I get like 10mpg there.

I would love to get 18-20. But I don't think it's possible for my city and I'm not going to drive my car like a 85 year old.

23-24 on V6. Even at that I'm shelling out 140 bucks a month on gas

In my GT, been getting 17-18 city and 23-25 highway.

I'd vote, but what mileage is the poll asking for?

In my GT I get 16-18 City and 18-20 Highway. That's why I don't want to get a tune for 91 or 93 octane, 87 is good enough for me.

Auto with about 12k miles, just under 20 mpg. It was getting 20-21 before the summer heat set in...

Basically, just the average between the two. I just am going by what my message center is telling me my average is. But some people don't have IUP.

I am the exact same. I live in an area where I never get on a highway, so I am stopping at a light every 1/4 mile everywhere I go, and I never get above 45 mph. I am lucky to get above 15 mpg, and that is if I am really kind to her.

Averaging 18.9 overall... mostly city driving. I'm very surprised (and happy) with my mileage.

I expected something much worse, especially since I'm still driving it like i stole it (I want to burn off my stock rubber so that I can justify replacements).
