I can get 19-20 city and 27-28 highway most of the time. I made a 2 hour trip doing an average of 90mph and still got 27 mpg, needless to say i was happy with that.

Thanks a lot man. Now on the flip side when you put your foot in it the fuel sipper becomes the fuel lush. Drinks like a sailors last night on shore leave. LOL. Low single digit mileage. Gotta give credit to the way LGM tuned the car, and how well the combo of Meziere ewp and ASP ud pully help reduce drag on the motor making it more efficient. Free flowing exhaust, no emissions, can't forget that. It all just works together very well.
