The last time around, I did 27mpg on the way out there, and close to 33mpg on the way back-- that's the cruise set at 80mph both ways. Our fuel is awful.
I've gotten 381 on a single tank (12.9 gallons, so a decent 29.5mpg), but that was pure highway. I still average 26mpg day in and day out, and I'm fine with that.
