What's the best MPG u got on your ZR so far?
My is an auto. My best is 17.7
I usually get 300~320 miles on a full 18 gallon tank with a lead foot.

20mpg here in the city of Maryland... Daily Driver. i'm guessing people are looking at their gauges? i'm doing the raw math after each fill ups... so i know exactly what i'm getting.

Dang, my first tank (and I thought I ran the car fairly hard) got me 22.5 pretty much all city, but I live in the outskirts where it's more rural, but I work in a metro area.
I expect to get 24 with normal driving.

On my latest road trip (3,500 miles in just under two weeks), my best mileage at 75 mph was 27 mpg. When I was visiting a relative in Kalamazoo, Michigan, and was doing a lot of city driving, I was able to achieve 22 mpg.
At the start of the road trip, the car had 3,700 miles on it at the start of the trip, and about 7,200 when I returned to South Dakota.

I drove from Nashville to Tampa, Florida and filled up once on the trip. When I was in Tampa I had another 75 miles or so before the need to refuel. On the first tank I got 30 and the second 28. Typically, I get 20-22 around town with some mixed interstate driving. On entirely interstate driving I get 26-30. In my case the fastest I drive is the speed limit.

yea thats what i get too. i think its my full exhaust system. any input? do you think throwing the cats back on will add some mpg. i dont floor it everywhere, and always shift before 4000.
