That is about what I have on mine (3000+) I picked mine up June 6 I am trying not to drive it....I average about the same sometimes I can get almost 25 on highway. I get @ 28 with my Aurora and it has a v-8 and it calles for the high octane stuff. It is possiable that the problem lies in the fact that I can't keep my foot out of it.....sometimes I have a need for speed. Still using 87 octane.

I know that 87 is the recommended type of gas to put in our cars but damn around here i can't afford it. I put 89-91 in mine (number varies by gas station) it's like 7 cents cheaper and i still average about 25mpg.
