I get about that too.
When Im on the hiway, its usually for a while, at a constant speed, my "city" is more like back road, and everywhere is a back road, and its usually 3rd, and 4th gear(m6)

when im up at school i either spend all my time in town or the entire tank of gas with the cruise set in the range of 75-80 either headed home or back to school i usually get about 360 miles on a tank when i do that and only put in between 12 and 13 gallons

so thats why the spread is so high

i'm lucky if I get over 200 to tank in town, but I am also having problems with knock retard which could be aggravating it. Highway I got 24 mpg the last trip averaging 80mph with 3.73 gears in a m6.
