The only real way to get the average is pen and paper. Fill up, drive that same scenario and then fill up again, then do the math.
I have not gotten better than 21.2 ever, and I have 11,000 miles. That was driving fairly normally, no A/C. My overall averages per tank are about 17.8 - 18.5
I'd like to hear Shiv's opinion on a 300HP car gettting 30+ mpg.
Anyone agree?
I get exactly 21.1 on a mix of 85% hwy and 15% city driving (about 1700mi so far). It doesn't seem to want to go up or down.
