Last weekend, my gas tank is really low and light went on. I have reach 504 miles of full of tank. I fill it up for 16 gallon. I probably have gone like 530 mileage or whatever for 1.50 gallon left. So you get 31mpg in a grand prix? [/b]Yes, that's correct. I drive like grandma. I should keep the paper to do the real math mpg but I know it is really 16.?? gallon of gas. I'm just curious how far I make it all way in full of gas tank. 504 miles is my new record.

I don't quite understand it either. I get 19ish in the city, even when I got WOT a couple times, but I can't seem to get over 25-26 on the highway. Ever.

Yes, I use cruise control on highway too. All I know it really help mpg lot for use it. I spend 95% on highway than city. That's how I got good mpg average. If I live in city and drive the traffic then I bet I would get like 20-23 like some of you have. My car NEVER got BRAKE on highway for 20 miles. I might hit the brake to let the car from ramp to get in sometimes but I'm working night shift so that's not lot of cars around me.
