Robby1870 Posted February 5, 2004 Report Share Posted February 5, 2004 I get 33 on the highway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeJay3800 Posted February 5, 2004 Report Share Posted February 5, 2004 My window sticker says 19 city and 30 highway. The DIS reads between 29-34 on the highway depending on terrain, speed, and load. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runt Posted February 5, 2004 Report Share Posted February 5, 2004 Does a 3100 count? I usually get about 24/25 in the city type driving, and probably 29-31 on the open highway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Posted February 5, 2004 Report Share Posted February 5, 2004 about 15-20mpg, thats cuz i have to give it some gas at every light (not raggin on it but letting it live a lil) i hate my gas milage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GP1138 Posted February 6, 2004 Report Share Posted February 6, 2004 I get about 15mpg or 200 miles a tank, but I have a 2.8. I'm the kinda person who has to be first off a light. When my dad was driving it it got about 25 MPG. I'm hard on my car, but this car sure takes it well. It's actually running quite well right now.

timoiii Posted February 21, 2004 Report Share Posted February 21, 2004 I took a trip to San Antonio from Kansas City with my father last summer and the car was getting somewhere in the ballpark of 33 on the highway w/AC. Neither of us could believe it. Normally, I would get about 20-21 city. Now with the winter and a starting problem that was described pefectly in someones message that everyone seemed to think was due to a fuel pressure regulator diaphram, I am getting something like 12-14. This is even without warming the car up 10 mins everyday. My car is taking food out of my baby's mouth. A can of formula is going a longer distance with my 7mo old, than a tank of gas. Oh, I have a 91 CS w/3.1 Auto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TurboSedan Posted February 22, 2004 Report Share Posted February 22, 2004 when i had the automatic trans in my car i got about 21mpg city/30mpg highway. with the manual trans i get about 18mpg city/and 33mpg highway. i think my foot got a little heavier when i swapped in the manual transmission it gets better highway mileage now than it did with the automatic tho. joshua Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfewtrail Posted February 24, 2004 Report Share Posted February 24, 2004 I get ~30 on the highway and about an average of 25mpg w/ a mix of city and highway driving. I usually get a lot less in town because my exhaust is so loud and I like to hear it/mash the pedal down more often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipman Posted February 24, 2004 Report Share Posted February 24, 2004 I used to get 30+ highway mileage, but now with ~184,000 miles I seem to only get around 22 mpg. I guess she's just getting old! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black90Euro Posted February 25, 2004 Report Share Posted February 25, 2004 been a while since I took a trip in the car but was around 30mpg, I gonna get the injectors cleaned one of those 3 stage jobs maybe that will help with the city mileage :?

GPRACER Posted February 25, 2004 Report Share Posted February 25, 2004 Not sure about actual figures gas prices vary so much, how can you be sure? (around here anyways) It usually costs me about 10.00 CDN, to travel 100 kilometers. Fill up costs anywhere from 38 to 45 dollars and I always get from 380-500 kilometers, per tank, combined city/highway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godofthunder Posted February 25, 2004 Report Share Posted February 25, 2004 I get about 270 to a tank, and usu. about 24MPG. Thats about 20min trips everyday to school on the interstate, but LOTS of driving back and forth every day to work, gym, and from interstate to deck at school. On long hiway trips (from Richmond to Stauton recently)...i think I got 340 to that tank, and that was also with a day or two normal driving again jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
