It will vary depending on what rear gear and tire size could change it some.

It varies. Now I get about 17 in the city and 21 on the road. My bone stock 94 GT (with 2.73's) averaged 29 mpg on a 2000 mile cross country trip. That's rare, though...

With my bone stock cobra, I am getting between 19-22, city/highway combined driving. If I push it, I can get about 300 on a tank. But that is when I start to sweat..

I average 23mpg in combination driving to and from work 31 miles each way. I usually get about 17mpg around town and 26-27mpg with strickly Interstate driving. That's with 3.08's. That'll change soon though

Same here, I usually fill up on Monday nights after work. Sometimes I have to fill up before the weekend, depending on how heavy my foot was that week.
