What are your ACTUAL MPG's?
As we all know, the car industry isn't intirely honest with us. Although the sticker on my 2005 xB says 31city/34highway, the last tank averaged 27.5 MPG(mostly highway). Now, don't get me wrong! I am MORE THAN PLEASED with that. It's just a little bit of a bummer when your expecting 30 or above, ya know what I mean? So...what are you averaging? Tell me all about it! You "lead-footin" it? You drivin mostly city? Automatic? I WANT IT ALL! LOL! Thanks for all your info! DRIVE ON! :D
Well it also depends what is done to your ride. If its bone stock.. 100%
then you would get better than modified too.. Soon as you change wheel size.. or add exhaust etc.. its going to change. I am averaging right now 28ish mpg.
But I am.. 18\'s Intake. Header. Exhaust. Pulley. That and I drive my ride hard.
Now if I grandpa\'d it a little bit more I know I could increase my mileage.

5-spd and heavy foot.
Stock I was getting about 31.5.
I haven't had my dash together for a whole tank yet without CEL, but I'm guessing about 28 (calc'd in my head remembering miles before trip reset) with short ram intake and 17" wheels. I did notice my foot got a little heavier after the intake.
That's 75-80 freeway in the morning with all windows open, usually rush hour coming home,

I've got 29k miles and half is highway driving (thousands of miles on I-5 in Cali between San Francisco and Bakersfield). I get around 28mpg on trips and as low as 18 on a heavy weekend. 25-26 is average. Oh yea, I have a K&N panel air filter with custom exhaust (very high flowing) also stock cat + res.
