    Default What's your gas mileage?

    I am just curious what people get for gas mileage. I tend to get about 18 MPG and was wondering if that was about the normal amount that I should get.

    Default RE: What

    I get something crazy like 23+ on the freeway. I use the cruize all the time and of course, Florida is pretty flat so there aren't a bunch of hills to go up and down.

    Cheri,

    You're in Seattle, there's a lot of hills up there huh? That's probably a factor in your 18 mpg gas mileage.

    Default RE: What

    I live in a part of the country that has a lot of hills as well, and my gas mileage isn't as good as it is when I go somewhere that's not quite so up and down. Just part of life I guess.

    Default RE: What

    I clocked it when I first bought the thing. I was averaging 18.5 MPG with a decent combo of city and highway driving. I figured that wasn't too bad at all for all that I got out of driving it. It's curious to see that other people are getting different MPGs.
