I get between 38 and 42 mpg on my daily interstate commutes, I get closer to 38 mpg if Im driving 70+ and 42 if I drive like 63 mpg in cruise. here in Kentucky I-75. Keep the RPM below 3,000 and the car does really well. I like to run at a speed of 2800-2850 on the interstate in my AT.

good to see an automatic transmission still going strong at 157,000 miles.

I average 36 MPG driving city and interstate with an automatic transmission. The best was 39 MPG and the worst was 31 MPG. I drive pretty hard too. I like the gas mileage. I think it is pretty good and the car has some zoom in it.

Getting mid to high 30's all winter... We've had a warm spell this last week though and I filled up with 6.12 gallons of fuel and went 296.8 miles, it worked out to 48.49mpg. Best Tank I've had thus far! I drive at 50-55mph and its all highway. Run full Synthetic oil and never use the brake pedal (engine brake everytime possible). My shoe box is giving my motorcycles a run for their money!

I've been getting low to mid 30s all winter, especially when I'm driving at 9 MPH behind people who have no right to drive in the snow. My Harley (Sportster XL 883 L) averages 50 MPH.

I am running 185/65-14 snows up front. With the longer warm up time and having to defrost the inside of the car, I'm down in the low 30s mpg. The more efficient the vehicle,the more effect the variables have. To stay in the big numbers takes a life style change. I have averaged just over 40 mpg for all the gas that has gone through the tank. 16 or 17 months so far.

When the 185s wear out, go narrower if available. Those wide tires actually work against you, not only does your fuel efficiency suffer, but the narrow tires work better in the snow because they cut through the snow deeper for better grip, and don't plow as much.
