My mpg is always around 16! Is there something wrong with my engine? Even when I shift low my mpg sucks!
I haven't had my car for 2 weeks, so I have been saving lots of money on gas.

I can get 27 max on the highway ( 80-85mph). Around town, a whole lot less.

A few weeks ago I drove my 99 Mystique 2.5 V-6 from here to Philadelphia and back, over the mountainous and twisty Pennsylvania Turnpike, averaging about 75 mph on three tanks of gas or 26 mpg. Now If I were not such a lead foot I probably could get 30. But driving that speed on that road and getting 26 makes me smile  The rise in gas prices is not our fault!

The best I've seen on the highway was 30mpg crusing at 80mph. But, it's usually in the upper 20s with my lead foot (120mph bursts, WOT when merging or passing).
I get about 25mpg mixed in the summer and 22mpg mixed in the winter (stupid oxygenated fuel!!!).
I LOVE my car!!! Completely flawless since I drove it off the lot with 7 miles on the odometer.
