Last year I averaged about 20mpg in a Toyota Tacoma. I drove about 200/300 miles a week, most of it needlessly. I paid a stupid amount of money for little or no reward. I sold my truck in November and couldn't be happier. I am healthier, happier, and have manged to save quite a lump of change. When I actually need a car I either borrow or rent. About $100 since thanksgiving. I however have burned through drive train components and tires so the savings may be offset a little.....
21 in the 2.3 ford Ranger
600 miles from a 58 litre tank = 39mpg(US)
about 15 mpg highway in my landrover discovery II. no idea what it is around town. its maybe a 10 mile commute to work...
64 ford galaxie convertible used to get 16 on the hwy at 65 mph
03 vette trip to texas averaged 29 mpg at 80 mph but in town will get down to 19 cause of the way I drive:biggrin:

You have a spreadsheet, don't you?
1995 Subaru Impreza:
Around town: ****ty, really ****ty, no idea why
On the highway: averaged 27ish across the country. High of 35mpg at 65mph through Nebraska with a tailwind.
2003 Surly Karate Monkey
Bowl of cereal and a glass of OJ gets me to work and back no problem

EPA updates website tool to calculate realistic mileage figures based on the new 2008 standards
Based on personal mileage averages in various models I've driven, seems much more accurate/real world compared to the old estimates.

Its sooo anoying that we dont get these cars here.yup, by the looks of it i'll be getting a good bit over 600 miles from a 58 litre tank. Time will tell on that front though, as i mentioned before it should get even better (to the tune of 3-4%) if i get it remapped.
Just in case anyone's thinking this is a silly wee city car, it isn't.
(edit: for perspective, the wheels are 18s)
that's a cool link. i just registered.
really?? U did actually get the mk1 & 2 versions (Contour to you lot) but not the mk3. And because you weren't getting the mk3 they were able to make it far far nicer with a germanic (sorta) interior that apparently doesn't go down so well on your side of the pond
have you seen the contour that we get? Now its called the 'edge' but fact remains its not the car you guys are getting over there, and without a deisel option.
I just took my new chevy 2500HD 4x4 crew turbo diesel on a run to NH. Running 75 & punching it out of every tollbooth I averaged 19.5 mpg.
Not bad for a 7000#, 360hp/650tq truck with only 600mi on it. My old 02 6.0l would only get 12-13mpg on that same trip.

I'm guessing those puddles are urine.
That's a really long tunnel? How much elevation gain is there?
Now I've got a 1.8T jetta (manual) and I get about 27-28 depending on how frisky I am feeling
your friskiness level only manifests itself as a ~1mpg difference?
