Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General General whats your MPG??

Just drove down to N.C. from Mass. this weekend; averaged 27-28 mpg, which is spectacular, compared with the 22-24 mpg my SVT usually gets. I even hit 30 mpg through a few fill-ups.

I get between 24.5 and 26.5 mpg combined city/highway driving, and that's driving fairly fast. On a strictly highway trip I usually pull about 28 mpg and that's doing 80-85 mph. I keep my tires inflated to 33 psi.

Of course in the summer my AC is always blasting, but that does not seem to affect my mileage too much.
