For me there was always a HUGE difference between city and highway mileage. On long road trips I'd get like 32 mpg at over 80 mph... which is far better than my new Mazda 3 is getting. Makes me wonder what the heck I bought a compact for. In the city I couldn't even get 20 unless I drove grandma-style!


. . . Two zetec Contours, two blown head gaskets... for some reason I have a Japanese car now. anybody in California want a Diehard Gold 100 month battery? inquire by PM.
