Mileage < 20mpg or > 20mpg?

[VOORHEES]

21mpg for everyday driving, just to work and back. I have only been on a couple of long trips and got 26-27mpg
Pretty damn good for a V8.

30 MPG mostly highway from Maryland to Georgia. Usually between 13 and 24 depending on how I drive. That was with the stock gears. With 3.73's since I give it hell more it's about 15 average. Around 170 to 240 miles on a tank.

been getting around 17 since i've had the car, and i've been getting on it a lot since it's new to me. I imagion i could get 18 or 19 once the novelty wears off.

I've been checking with the high gas prices and because I'm about to switch out my gears. I average 20mpg with mostly highway (3.27) and "getting on it" here and there. If I drive like a pansy in 5th gear alot i doubt I could break 23-24mpg. There are some crazy claims of 26+mpg on this forum, but maybe...
everyone drives different, with different mods etc.

26+ isn't hard to believe. Manufacturers rating is 25 MPG for the highway. I have gotten 27 once before, and that was 90% highway and not getting on it. It's things like K&N filters, exhaust, lowering (less drag), etc. that all make SMALL inprovements that add up and these little things will give you an extra MPG or two in combination with each other.

I get between 12 and 26 mpg depending on the day of the week... weekdays and track days I get really low mileage because of traffic and or heavy acceleration

On the weekends there isn't much traffic and I do a lot of highway driving.

24 mpg is as good as it gets when I drive super slow and never rev over 2k...
