2009 H3T with the I-5, I have 25,000 Mi. and mostly all highway. With the stock tires I was getting around 16-17 mpg, But with the new tires, I'm hovering around 13 Highway. I was kinda surprised I was getting that much off the lot though.

Yawls city numbers are a lot better than mine, Ive got the T with Alpha pkg and no suspension mods or new wheels (stock 32s), and Im getting around 10mpgs city; but thats also drivin in New York City and most of their traffic lights are not synchronized anymore.

Im getting over 20mpgs Hwy now since getting the Air Doc and Diamond Back cover installed, if I dont set the cruise control over 50.

My I-5 Manual is great on gas... I can drive from Calgary to Vancouver on a single tank of fuel (600 miles).

City Average: 16-18 MPG
Highway Average: 20+ MPG
Extended Trip Average: 22-24 MPG

Sugarphreak's HIGHWAY TIPS: Use Cruise Control on the highway; keep your tires inflated around 38 to 40psi; for manual transmissions don't strain the engine in 5th on steep grade hills, you should be gearing down to 4th for more power and better fuel consumption well before you start to lose speed in 5th.

Are you sure you don't mean 600kms? if it is 600 miles you would be around 30mpg? I drive alot on the highway and I average about 21mpg.

^^ No I mean 600 miles... that trip is 1000kms

I averaged between 22-24mpg (US MPG)

Keep in mind the H3T has a much larger gas tank than the H3 SUV
