Why is it so hard to comprehend that the motor in the murano was not tuned for performance in mind like the G?

also CVT keeps the rpms where the car is most efficient.

whereas the G uses the same powertrain as the 370Z and do you think they built that car with MPGs in mind?

how many miles did you drive to average 30mpg?

I drove about 250 miles 1-way from dallas to austin and averaged 27mpg driving 65-75mph the entire way. This is with 3.692FD 7AT

Nice mileage man. Did not know it was possible to get 30 mpg. Did you do the hand and paper method? Based on my experience, my mpg computer is about 1 mile off. So if it claims 29 mpg it is really 28 or so.

@qmantran https://i.imgur.com/9D1ltH0.png ~70 miles since refilling.

@GG, The fillups by hand averaged ~27.5 - 31 mpg over 2100 miles. I never rely on the car's computer for accuracy, but it sure made for a good pic.

Here's the most prominent thread, but there are quite a few others.

Nah, I think this one has run its course. If another mod wants to reopen it... OK.
