Over 1,000 miles on the 2011 GT

Oh come on I am only 20, although after my car accident I've feeling like one. Used to handle 5-8 battery installations one after another but now it's one and my back is aching.

I'm not sure if many of you guys care much about this, but Genot, does fuel economy increase as the car gets more miles on it? This is my first new car, and so far my highway mpg's have been less than the city mpg rating. Just wondering if the numbers actually increase once the car is broken-in.

I'm with you. I want a fast, fun to drive car, but I don't want a gas guzzler. If the global economy picks up steam we could see $4/gallon gas again. Then throw in some anti-global warming energy taxes, and it's possible we could see $5/gallon in a few years. I'm not saying it will happen, I'm saying it's a possibility. And for me, my Mustang will not just be a weekend toy. It will be my daily driver except in winter, so fuel economy is a factor.

This said from my "Test Drive" take it how you want.

The fuel economy has to improve I would think. I can get 26.5 MPG extended on flat highway at 65 MPH in my car (5 speed with 4:10's). I drive in a lot of stop and go traffic but still typically average 21 MPG + on a tank of fuel. It's pretty rare that I drop the hammer on this car, so maybe the adaptive computer has compensated over time?

Can you imagine what that would do to RV and camper sales? I bet numerous campgrounds would close down. And if gasoline costs that much you can bet jet fuel would also go way up. Hard times for many industries, if that prediction comes true.
