Well, all i can say is HELL YES. I was driving on the freeway last night, 6th gear at 65 mph, got 34.8 mpg. Not bad at all i would have to say.

 

not bad at all....my 2000 saab 95 gets like 29mpg on a highway

 

I hate you! What kind of gas are you running? I've been getting about 14.8-15mpg with mixed driving and the highest I've seen was about 20, and that dropped after about half an hour of mixed driving....

 

i would guess 91 octane.....

 

I meant brand of gas...I think we all use, atleast, 91...

 

i use hess 93 ocane and get 26 to 30mpg on my 03

 

Hmmm, did you reset the MPG calculator and check the first reading? I noticed that when you do that, the first reading is always something ridiculous like 30+ mpg. Then after a few more minutes the rating goes down to something more realistic.

 

i always use mobile or exxon....they're nice

 

what do you rev at 80mph in the HR motor? I hate how the 04 revs 3000RPM in 6th

 

IIRC, all gearing is the same for all 6MT's.

 

Yup, and I managed to see 29.4 today at 60 with no A/C. As soon as I got to 75 with the A/C on it was down to 24 again....I dunno if its just me, but even with cruise my car sucks gas.

 

ur not alone buddy!

 

i did reset it a couple of times. It just seems to go up as the motor is broken in. When i got her she had somewhat Sh*** mpg readings but now it seems to be getting better. I only use Shell. The highest rating we have here is 91. I'm extatic with the results so far.

 

Calculate your avg. mpg when you refill your tank. That's realistic.

 

Im blessed to even see the mpg in the 20s haha

 

Yeah if you reset the mpg calculator going downhill at 80mph you get like 54 mpg lol!

I usually get a true 26-27mpg on the highway.

~KK

 

Pretty much exactly what I get.

In the city 14 if i'm lucky.

 

Honestly don't know. Still breaking my engine in...I've less than 1K miles. At 65mph, I'm at about 2.3K RPMs or so. And I've only reset my MPG counter once. My MPG has gone up some since I first bought the car but am still at about 15MPG on average. I've posted about this before, so I'm really hoping it'll get better once the engine is fully broken-in....

 

Dang, that's low. The lowest I ever had was 21.7 with highway/city and getting on it once on full tank
