Why would you buy a Mustang if you were worried about gas mileage? That wasn't a smart choice, then...

LOL You guys probably wont believe me because even i dont believe it, on the highway wiht the cruise at 75 I get between 27 and 28 MPG!!. flowmaster catback drop in KandN stock 245s. I have tested it several times and always zero out my trip meter to keep track of my fuel burn. In town driving like a grandpa shifting at 2k it does go down to 19-21MPG. I did not buy a stang for gas milage i was counting on 21 on the highway so this is just a bonus. Im still dropping 4.10s in her in a couple of days FTW and the fuel milage.
I';m in the same boat as you getting 24-25 mpg and that is 60% city and 40% highway. That is not even conserving because I always bring it up high on one tank. Suckers, I got blessed with a V8 with good MPG

That right foot makes the biggest difference.

Nitrogen in the tires guys? Are you serious?

If nothing else, buy a 1500 dollar beater... mine gets 35+ MPG on my daily 90 mile drive.
I have nitrogen in my Tires. It rides alot better. i think its Expensive, my friend owns a Shop sooo yeah, I dont really pay for N e thing. But I think Nitrogen in the Tires is worth it. I havnt had to put Air in my Tires for a LONG TIME...
