MPG
Hi all!! I just took my 350 on a 100 mile each way highway trip and got 28.5 mpg which I thought was pretty good. I was doing 75-85mph most of the way. What sort of mpg do you folks get with your 350s?

Thanks Mihir - I had it on comfort mode too, I'm amazed that it gives me way better mpg than my BMW 330ci ever did - that struggled to get 25 on an 800 mile trip!!
