There is no highway around here and there is a lot of light stops so I get around 23 mpg.

2001 ZX3 turbo with 142,000 miles. I usually get around 340 before the light goes on. The most I've driven is 360 and took close to 12 gallons. I usually fill up around 300 miles and take around 9.8 to high 10's. Most of my driving is highway driving and I drive 75-80 mph. I estimate my mpg's average 25-28 with an occasioal 30's when not using AC.
