My SVT gets 20 or 21 every time I've check it, but I'm hoping to get high 20s on road trips (possibly to Vegas next month, if I don't fly). My previous ride, a '92 Nissan Sentra XE 5spd, got as much as 45 MPG on road trips. Needless to say, the SVT was a shock in this department... (but it was also a shock in the speed department, which makes up for it. ) --T.J.

i was just wondering if any of u guys have similar results or something like that.
anyways spring break was great. My 96 Mystique got 29.6 at the last fillup on regular use. Last winter I averaged around 25-27. Last summer's trip to Nova Scotia I managed 35+ with windows up, A/C and cruise on. Mine equipped with 4cyl, automatic, currently 78,000 miles.

I usually get around 20 around town and I think I got 25-30 on highway trips. What is the deal with the parking brake, and where can I find out about fixing it?
