I have a pretty balanced city/highway commute with my 2002 GT and I get approximately 16-17 in the winter, and so far 18-19 in nicer weather. I hammer on it regularly, though. So far mods are: K&N CAI and Borla Catback.

Before Im added the cams and SVO inytake I was getting 17.5 in m ixed driving and an amazing 25-27 on the interstate even with 4.10's. I am soon cganging to Crower 62811's and expect the mileage to get back closer to what it was. Right now I have made some tuning changes and am checking the mileage again and =will eport what I get.

Personally i dont care about how much mpg i do, that totally remove the fun of driving a mustang gt and hearing the engine reving up.

all of you who gets 16 mpg+ city must be shifting below 1400 rpm and never hear any nice sounds coming out of your cars.

while on the highway and never really paying attention to my speed, i'd say i average 300-320 miles to an empty tank. which is something like 21 mpg.
