Yea i get around 250 too, abuse? I dont think so. If I wanted to drive slow as hell I wouldnt have bought this car. So I call it enjoying my drive. lol. Plus I dont have many freeway miles so my avg. goes down.

250 out of a tank, on average? That seems pretty low, unless you're not doing any highway driving. What do you get on the highway?

I get 250 per tank with like 90% city / 10% highway

with a 4 cylinder

one time I tried to not push hard on the car and made 420 miles. That is 40%city and 60%highway. But usually I make 300 per tank.

I try to keep my revs around 2.5K, but usually up to 3K. I have an SLE V6 and get about 350-400 miles with 90% city and 10% highway.

I get like 350-400. I don't floor it often at all. If hwy consists of 50+ then I drive 75% hwy & 25% city.

I get 300+mpg 2002 SLE V6 and that's 95% local 5% freeway. I floor all the time. It's a really fun car to drive:lol: btw I do have tornado fuel saver installed don't know if that thing works though :roll:

300+MPG??? is not per tank??? if so i don't think that things will help u at all cause i got about 330-380 per tank with 95%hwy too... but almost 30-40% was busy hours and is AUTO.

by **HKSV6SLE** » Thu Apr 08, 2004 3:05 am

i get around 400 per tank, with a mix of highway/street....

by **Missay** » Fri Apr 09, 2004 7:05 pm

yea, i get about the same...300 tops. I usually do a lot short trips though and rarely am on the hgwy longer than a few exits a few times a month..if that.

I do abuse my car a lot though.........
