Default 'Lude guys...what kind of MPG do you get??

i'm not lookin for what you get per tank (i have no idea how large your tanks are), but what your actual MPG is and if that's city or highway just tryin to get a general feel. i know the h22 has v6 like power, but i'm wonderin if it sucks v6 like gas too! TIA!

tank is 15.9 gallons, in a 5th gen SH, which comes out to be 60 liters (if you go by metric) I get about 20-25 or so MPG, thats just a guess tho, I don't have an actual number.

well, at around 3000RPM when i'm in the "gas saving mode"... depends on how fast i'm going though. i really like to shift at 7400RPM
but on average at around 3500RPM.

Generally on my 5G I get between 250 and 280 miles on 12-13 gallons (rarely go into the reserve), with a max of 320 miles and min of 100 miles.

So, average:
20-21 mpg
max:
27-28 mpg
min:
8 mpg

That 8 miles per gallon minimum was due to daily 1 mile trips... I am gonna walk more often this coming summer.

6-10 when racing

12-16 driving, and that's easy driving.
