here's the kind of mileage you get when driving downhill!!!
Remember to include a few stop and go's in your calculations! Otherwise your MPG estimate will be as fake as this one!

RE: Decided to check my freeway gas mileage
i get about 11.4MPG and i have 2000 miles on the car
i tryed for a full tank to drive as careful as possible im talking about shifting at 2k- 2.5kMAX and cruising as much as possible, and i got 13.7 so i say **** it FLOOR that bitch. its not worth it for me to try and concentrate on driving slow. id rather pay the extra 40 bux a month and OPEN the throttle whenever i want. plus thats what i bought the car for right?

RE: Decided to check my freeway gas mileage
I drive 50 miles to work and the stang gets over 30mpg if I can keep it at 55mph (that is painful). All in all I average 26-27 all the time, but I am all highway driving. 13k on her already. Best damn miles ever driven!

RE: Decided to check my freeway gas mileage
Taking mpg during rush hour is not a true reading especially around the Baltimore-D.C-N. VA area. Watch your mpg while sitting still and idling. You can watch it drop a tenth every few seconds.
