Before I get beat up, I did search for a logical answer and could not find one!!

Why is it I get 17+ MPG combined in-town/highway milage, but when I get on the interstate I maybe get14.5 MPG's at best?? I have an 07' 5-speed W/11,500 miles on the odometer & rarely drive over 75.

 

I get 9-11 mpg...so I have no first hand knowledge to help you.

 

Lack of bling, definitely. Bling helps in the aerodyanmics, would get you better highway mpg. I get 14.5 mixed, maybe up to 16 on highway. [/align]

 

Maybe you get lucky had hit all green lights?

If you voted for me in the ROTM I think your Hwy MPG may go up.

 

i've never gotten less than 17.something per mile on a tank yet,, although it's downhill both to and fro work

 

I get about the same with 35" tires.Hey importkiller.Do you have a PCM tune?I should get one of those.

 

Please tell me that you take a different route both directions because you've got me confused with the downhill both ways. I don't think that I've had THAT much to [sm=alcoholic.gif].


I put on another post:

1. Never broke 3,000 RPM's
2. Never went over 65 MPH
3. 80/20 HWY/CITY
4. Stock Tires (265's)
5. Front is leveled
6. Airaid Quick Connect Air Filter and TBS

Got roughly 13.7-14 MPG.

Couldn't tell you, I get the same or better if I just drive the dang thing.

 

I just checked and am getting 16 in town. Why would leveling make a difference?

 

I think it has to do with wind.... in town/highway thereare more things to block the wind... on the interstate you are driving a great big brick against heavier winds...

 

IMHO the optimal efficiency speed seems to be somewhere between 50 and 60 mph. Once you just run along faster say 70-75 mphw/ the cruise set, your mileage goes down. I'm getting around 16.5+ mpg combined as well?? Never tried tofigured out strictlyhwy speed mpgs.
