In a mixed commute on suburban roads and highways, I'm getting 24 mpg. Since I got the car it went up from 17. I could care less how accurate it is, because it is what it is. So if it's off 2 mpg either way, I don't care.

In New York City, you fill up your own tank, so I top it off to the nearest dollar... Yesterday, I was in New Jersey and the pump stopped at like $51.47 or some **** and he kept it there... I hate when they don't top it off... However, I paid $3.45 for premium, which is about a 50 cent difference from where I live... Usually when I top it off it is closer, considering more gas is going in (duh me) lol... And to answer everyones input on how much bad gas mileage I get, if you lived in NYC you'd understand... There's a traffic light every 1/4 mile, none of them in sequence, and the traffic is horrible... And I live in Staten Island, supposedly the quietest borough on NYC... Imagine I drove in Manhattan, my gas mileage would be about 12-13 on average... LOL

Yeah I'd rather pump myself, damn Jersey idiots can't pump (or drive for that matter) lol... The most I've paid for premium ever is about $4.35 where I live, it was killing me... And davv, I could imagine... Big reason why I didn't wanna get a manual lol
Always is ruberneck toward bk bound.

At about 4,200 miles on the clock. Getting 22.5+ mpg overall driving. Use mostly Shell premium in the gas tank, and the synthetic blend the dealer uses for oil changes. Getting better mpg than my V-8 '08 Explorer, but less than my '06 V-8 Corvette.

G37xNYC - totally off topic, I just passed my last part in May and was licensed this July! Do you have any parts? Don't get discouraged. Anyways, just add some custom stitching to the seats or something (hahaha). Or a bumper sticker... That should also improve gas mileage as well.
