Default 2006 MPG what do you get?

I seem to get the best mileage at 68mph with the CC on. The computer shows 29 to 34 mpg.
I drive a round trip on the freeway every Sat. of about 240 miles.

What mpg are you getting and at what speed?

Try driving 55MPH. I hear that thats the speed of every cars best MPG. Kinda hard going that slow tho i know. but if your that cheap then i guess u will do it to save a few dollars and take alot more time driving.

I only get 3-4 miles per 8 gallon tank!

I'd just go by what you get, to many other variables with other cars. Tire pressure, tread pattern, driving habits all make a difference. Think your mileage is fine. Slowing down sometimes makes it worse, drops your power band out of the efficient range.

Ya I'm lucky if I get 23 at 55mph but at 70 I'm getting about 26...
