i average 20.5 right now doing combo city and highway. recently took a trip to ocean city, md and it was a 109 mile trip and i burned 4 gallons. so highway driving is really good.

i get about 31 to 34 on the highway, and about 20 to 22 in the city. but on long trips i get about 40 to the gallon. gotta love them Big RIGS. on my way to el paso one time i got almost 500 miles to the tank. this Freightliner was in front of me for the most of the time on I-10 west. i pulled in about 50ft back or so, and set the cruise to 70 and just enjoyed my music. God I Love traveling!!

I average 24 in town with traffic lights every 2 blocks, 27 hwy, with the a/c on all the time becuase it is currently a dry 90-95 degrees here right now.We are at 4500' altitude, so I am sure that has something to do with the gas mileage difference everyone is reporting.
I had a 03Expedition that I traded forthis v6 stang, the Expy only got 13 in town and 15 hwy [:'(], so I am NOT complaining about my gas mileage!!!

15.4 average, almost strictly in town. It used to get about 19 when I got it brand new, then 17 last year, and now, well, 15.4.

The best mileage I've got on an entire tank is 29.0, mostly on the freeway, but that tank even included a few full-throttle accelerations. The best for a trip was 32 on a country road with only a couple stop signs. In town I get about 17-20. I have the A/C on probably 90% of the time I drive but it doesnt seem to make a big difference.
