RE: Gas Milage
Hey. Just purchased my 2007 V6 two weeks ago, have 4000 miles on it. I just drove it from SC to MN. If the computer on it is correct, I get 29.3 on the interstate, about 22 mpg combine highway city. I am pleased.

RE: Gas Milage
I filled up on the way home tonight and checked when I got here. Averaged 68 mph on the 35 mile trip, and gas mileage was 24.3 mpg. I commute 60 miles one way to work, and with stop and go traffic on the expressway generally average between 21 and 25 mpg. When I do a lot of around town driving on the weekends I usually see around 17 - 19 mpg.
I don't have any performance mods, and have an automatic.

I highly doubt that you got 27mpg at 85-90mph i would believe that at maybe 60mph but not no 90mph. I dont see how you guys are posting like 29-30mpg either that makes no sense even with mods thats not going to raise it 5mpg over what its rated at. I average 25-26mpg on a regular day typically doing 65mpg on the interstate.

RE: Gas Milage
I get around 19, thats half city/half highway/half AF base. Its only 7 miles though... However I did get 26.5 mpg on a trip to San Antonio, and I had the Cruise set at ~82, no A/C of course. With the A/C on I dropped to around 24.7 or so... Damn Texas sun!
