How much MPG do you get in your XB?
I just bought my XB and I read in the other forums how some guys are only getting 28 MPG. I can see if you are stomping the gas at every green light but what about just cuising? I used a little over a quarter tank for 100 miles.
If only Guam has a super highway, I'll be votin on the 35mpg.
From wher I live, there is about ten trafic stoplights before my work place. Not to mention 3 school bus stops at my village, and all this the 7:00am rush hour. I get about 30mpg for all this stop and go traffic.
My mileage went down a little bit when I installed the header. My guess is because it is more fun to get on it. When I cruise on the freeway, short shifting and staying overdrive I get well over 30 mpg.
I regularly average 37 - 39 MPG!!! 39.7 has been my best. That's a combo of city & highway. That's summertime MPG. Wintertime drops to about 32-34. Changes in gas formulation and effects of ambient temp on engine efficiency are the main reasons in the drop. Like others have said, go easy on the gas peddle. What's the rush? This vehicle is about being seen, not speed or power.
I've had my box for a month and a half and the lowest I've gotten is 32mpg all city driving and the highest was 35mpg half hwy/half city. Most of my driving is in traffic. I'm in Alaska so it will be interesting when it gets colder this winter how much my mileage will drop.
