Post some of your best MPG for a complete tank.....

Hey guys. New 12' Sedan 6MT owner. I've been driving like a race car driver since I got it, but I do want to see average total miles and best MPG others have been getting. My wife has a 10' AT and it does somewhere around 18-19 all around city and hwy.

I've done about 4 tanks in my '12 7at, 90% city, seems to be hovering right around 19.5mpg driving fairly conservatively due to the break in period.

i routinely average between 20 and 21mpg on my commute, 100% city. i've been on a few road trips, usually averaging 27-29mpg - depending on terrain. '09 6MT.

as for range between fueling, i typically see ~325 miles on my commute, 100% city. on the highway 450+.

around 16MPG most of the time. one tank will last 250 miles. 90% city driving.
when more highways were driven, it goes up to around 18MPG but still 70% city 30% highway.

My G37x w/17k miles gets 22-23 mpg (90% hwy). On long trips I've seen as high as 27mpg.

Sweet guys. I used to have a Honda Element for my DD. 19MPG was the best I could get considering that thing was a box with Zero aerodynamics.

Here's a pic of the new G. Happy as hell. Just need to relax and get some better mileage.

Nice red G, don't see too many red ones
My best hwy mileage when I had my stock rims was 30mpg, now w/ my 20" rims the best I can get is about 27-28.

Been averaging 13 - 15 MPG, 90% NYC traffic.
Hopefully my economy map will get me a few mpg now.

I only check mine on highway trips. On my 2 long trips of between 4,000 & 5,000 miles, driving with the air conditioner; fully loaded with 2 adults,dog and luggage; averaging 80mph on the interstates and 75 on the 2 lanes I got 27.8 and 28.2 mpg.
I went to Tampa to gamble Sunday, a 200 mile round trip and got 26.5 mpg, but I kept it between 85 and 90 mph for most of the trip.
I have a 2010 non-sport journey with the 17" stock wheels, so my setup probably gets the best mpg.

I got 22.3 from my last tank, 75% city 25% highway, followed traffic flow normally, no jack rabbit starts from stop to stop, and you know that's kind of useless on one lane each way roads. The best was on 300-mile trips, 70-75mph, 27.5.

I have been getting averages of 27 mpg on fill-ups with 95% freeway driving with about 3500 miles logged on my new 2012 G37 auto.

I hope I can reach 30 mpg after the initial break in period.

I've been averaging 22.5 with 20/80% city/highway. MY'12, xS, and about 4k total miles. Not sure I'll ever see 25 MPG unless I'm 100% highway roadtrip.
