Default MPG!!!

Just got 382 miles on 12.4 gallons. 30.8 MPG!!!!! Going from Dayton to Columbus twice with about 70 of the miles being city. Set the cruise at 68 to see if being under the usual 75-80 would make a difference. It did. What kind of mileage to you guys usually get. I'm usually at about 22-24 depending on if I'm in a hurry to get somewhere.

Do you have anything done to it? Usually that kind of gas mileage out of a stock car without a tune is pretty hard to pull off, not imposible though. So enjoy it while it last, once they start the oxidation of fuel again you drop some.

Default RE: MPG!!!

Nothing done to the car. I have no money to do anything with driving back and forth to see the girl friend all the time. JK. Ya, last summer I was lucky to hit 250 on a tank but for some reason I'm getting an extra 100 at least this summer so far. No complaints but I was wondering if anyone else has noticed a difference in theirs from last year to this. O, 87 octane is what I put in it. My eagle talon gets the good stuff so when this thing is getting over 350 a tank on 87, it will stay that way.

I've calculated my mileage in the city at 13 mpg. Do I have mods done to my engine that I don't know about or is this normal?
