for now you probably want to just drive...um..."slowly", if you really tone it down you can get these cars to around 20 in even city/traffic/suburbs driving

yeah, if you do mostly city driving these get kinda crappy mileage. I get 16mpg going 2 miles to and from work, with about 10 stoplights. It sucks, but what ya gonna do, I gotta drive my pony!

In suburban driving, about half of that being during rush hour (stop-and-go traffic for 11 miles), I get about 17-18 regularly but I was happy to get 20 on my last tank. I got 24 highway on a road trip some time back. I didn't get 20 mpg on my last tank because of anything I did though, all the schools were on spring break, so there wasn't as much traffic and I didn't have to stop for school buses.
