MPG everyone?
I recently cleaned out my JLT filter on my bullitt (after FAR too long of a wait lol) and had the chance to take it on a 1000+miles journey. I had my car loaded with about 300lbs of crap in the trunk and was running with the ac on the entire time and managed an average of about 25mpg (with maybe a 65/35 split of highway/street). I've done this run with an empty car and got just a hair north of 30 before.
My car is stock aside from CAI, tune, rear seat delete and lighter front seats. (well and suspension stuff, but I doubt any of that really contributes much). Rear gears are 3.27.
What kinds of MPG do you all see in your various SN95s? Feel free to include any mods you have and what kind of driving you normally do. I'm hoping this thread can be a good resource for people wanting to learn more about our cars in the future.

Lol I barely got over 21 in my 03, T-56 swap, 3.73s in the IRS pumpkin, probably 70/30 freeway/street. Even on a long drive to LA, I barely topped 25... Car also had JLT intake and Amazon tuned.

My 1997 GT auto is bone stock except a Borla cat-back exhaust. I have a commute 70% highway and get about 21mpg on 87. My 2003 Cobra gets just about the same

Lately, I've been getting a whoppin' 12-14 MPG.
A/C coupled with GTA mufflers and 18x9.5" wheels and appropriate tires = houtex has a serious lead foot problem these days..
Edit: Oh. SN95s. Dangit. I never read which area I'm in 'round here. Leaving it because.

Thanx..the worst I got was a average of 16 mpg the week of the MCA 45th show. I drove 88 miles a day, 4 days to Barber Motorsports Park and ran 30 min. a day (wide open) on the track!!
