Default Hows Your Guys Gas Mileage ?

Nissan Stats Are 20 Street 26 Highway. So If You Drive 1/2 Street And 1/2 Highway You Should See About 460 Miles On A 20 Gallon Tank. Even If You Drive All Street Thats About 400 Miles A Tank. I Drive A Long Way For Work So I Am Very Curious About Your Personal Gas Mileage. About How Much Do You Guys See Per Tank ? And Do You Drive Mostly Street Or Highway ? Auto Or 6spd ? And Finaly Do You Guys Have A Heavy Foot

Thanks Alot...

25.2 on highway cruising at about 80mph. Thats with a few 100mph+ runs

(My neighbor gets 28mpg. But his is really broken in)

usually around 20mpg for city/highway combined driving. Yes, my foot is very heavy

i get about 20-22mpg with about 1/3 highway. Dont forget that this car requires 91 octane gas, so that is a hidden expense. the fuel light comes on somewhere between 17-18 gallons so i usually get about 350-375 a tank. The fuel expense is still less than my old car(96 explorer).

These are rough numbers of what i average.
hope they help.

I get 17 to 27 depending on how many times I stick it. Cruising at 80 or so nets 25 -26 mpg.
