Re: 2009 2.4L mpg (ned23)

I only have about 450 miles, but I am averaging about 27.4 MPG city and highway.... I drive pretty fast, my average shift is 3500-4500 rpms... I drive about an 85-90 mile round trip everyday, averaging about 80-90 miles per hour whenever I can, so needless to say my driving is a little more aggressi...

Re: 1.8 versus 2.4 (DonB)
