No bs on this. I averaged 26 mpg this weekend. Mostly hiway, and the best I logged was over 28 mpg.

Isn't that about 5 quarts US? If so, still about 21 mpg.

My mpg always reads high by about 1 more than actual calculation.

Some of you guys get great gas mileage.
I am stock I average about 13.5 MPG reading on my gauge.
How do some of you get 320 KM's on 1/2 a tank, when I get that on almost a full tank

2.5 inch budget boost with 4.10 gears and 33's and I got 12.6 mpg on my trip today from GA to VA. I also drove about 70 to 80 mph.

I am all stock and do a lot of hwy and I get 16mpg and thats with me watching that lame Eco on light all the damn time. The meter usually says 1mpg over what it really is when I do the math. I wish I was getting 18-20. I almost can't afford to keep this thing nevermind upgrade it!

I was going through some foothills, and mountain roads. Not driving too fast (speed limit), and didnt stomp on the gas. Bone stock rig. City driving is about 18 mpg, hiway was unreal last trip. I am assuming when I put the soft top on, my milage will go down a bit.
