It's ok... I'm in the same boat as you. i don't get the rated milage nor anywhere close... but i think thats cause i have to drag around my lead foot everywhere i go... i think staying in lift as much as possible really eats away at the gas milage... i get somewhere between 23-27 everyweek mixed driving

wow! i avg about 26 mpg. and that's a lot of city driving. i work outside sales and so i'm constantly running to and from appts all over town. and that's with flooring it here and there and hitting lift about every other day... or with the summer time, more frequently i'm sure! LOLplus, drummer, i bet your low mileage has a lot to do with your driving habits!

So it wouldnt be a good time to tell you I am exceeding the mfg specs and getting over 36 per tank To be fair, I have driven 1300 miles and 1150 of that is in 3 trips(650, 250, 250). Gonna do another 650 on Friday. I am not used to driving something where the gas tank can outlast the tinkle tank Bob
