I parked my 13 MPG '00 Durango & got this... http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=33690 To say I'm happy with it is an understatement! Favorite new activity..... passing by gas stations. Great forum you have here.

Nice looking GT! You'll have to let us know what kind of mileage you get. I'm hopefully going to be trading in my 03 AWD for a new GT soon... I am anticipating similar mileage to what I get today, but still looking for real world examples of what people are getting for mileage on the GTs.

I have a couple of long, gas sucking hills in my commute... average about 29 MPG. I had one tank with a 60 mile hiway stretch that pushed it to just over 30. Looking forward to some freeway miles to see what it can do

Great looking car I have been having more and more people ask me about the gas mileage. A fella at Home Depot yesterday said...'does that car have as good gas mileage as I hear?'...then, later...'its a Toyota, right?'Just managed to eek out 600km on a tank

Nice color. I just picked mine up last week. I commute 500 miles / week.to/from work I get around 32.8mpg. Last saturday I drove to the dealership to get my inspection sticker. I decided to see what the car can do on Rte 495.. I was happy with the choice I made. mpg drops to around 28mpg, when driving the car hard, but it's fun.
