Default 17 MPG not bad

I just filled up my H3 for the second time and granted I've been taking it easy but it still averaged 17 miles per gallon. This is a mix of 55-70 on the freeway and just your basic around town driving including some stop and go traffic. I'm more than impressed with this mileage.

Just checked the milage yesterday when I filled up. went 202 miles on 11.495 gallons which mean I am getting 17.6 MPG. 14.3 when I tow my trailer (2000lbs.) Still not bad...

Been monitoring my mileage the last four fill-ups and I'm getting 18-19 miles per gallon I do about 70 highway/30 city driving so I'm happy with the results. I now have 4500 miles on it and it got better as the mileage increased.
