Anywhere from 18/19 to 23/24 with mine.

I get 21/24 with Exxon Supreme and an average mix of around town/highway driving.....AND i behave myself....


I get 18/19 if my wife tries to cheat and put Hess(BP)gas, one of the cheap gas brands, or anybody's mid-grade gas in the car.

average 30

With my diesel i do 28-29 city (depens how i push it) and 30+ hwy. My last trip i put 13 gal of diesel (tank light was not even on) and mostly i did hwy driving 70 75 mph, in so cal where is a lot of hills, I got my fuel light on at 420 mi. So do the the math its 32mpg. Not bad even if diesel is more expensive than gas.

I got 20.5 in the 500 once.....I think it was a fluke, usually 19 mpg on long trips doing 75-85mph. If I try really really hard I can get 15 mixed, and I mean really freakin hard....Don't get a 500 for the mpg though, thats for damn sure.
