What do you drive and how many MPG do you get?

[farmerehsan 10+ year member]

I didnt get any better mileage with my 3.3 Xterra
Now I have a 3.5 VTEC in my MDX and I average about 17.2 mpg

exactly... i should be doing just a lil bit better cuz its a 4 cylinder...my city gas milage is better than my highway...every hurd of that?

Seems about right, my 240 used to get 20, so add in all your extra weight, 13-16 is in the realm of possibilities.

the 6 cylinder guys are gettin better milage than me

yes I have...hybrids were designed for city driving so they initially get better gas mileage in the city than highway.

sometimes big wheels hurt your mpg...in my 2006 Tacoma Quad cab long bed I got 17mpg with the 20's...I went back to stock 16's before getting rid of it and was seeing 22-24 mpg....that was with the 4.0 V6 and auto *****....it had 14,000 miles on it when i got rid of it

No.. I just like to drive like that. Only from 1st to 2nd though. If I do that in 3rd I'd be doing about 80mph.

It's always fun to **** with ricers at stop lights, too. I'm chipped and tuned with 2 step at 3000rpm. I'll lauch on them after they sit there and rev at me until the light turns green. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

92 talon tsi and i get around 20 mpg

probably a bit more if i got a good tune.

shifting my car at 8k would probably do some damage

With a stiffer valve train and a set of cams I can rev to 10,300rpm all day. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eek.gif.771b7a90cf45cabdc554ff1121c21c4a.gif
