I usually get 22-24, mostly city driving. Sounds about right for my car too. I have seen closer to 30 with all highway driving, but I do a combo of driving every day. As far as CSVT's (and non-STV's as well), I love them. I have only had a clutch go bad, but that could be due to my driving habbits. My 95 SE was horrible with waterpumps (went through 4 in less than 20K miles). Almost 60K on my SVT now and still the original water pump and alternator. 2003 Toyota Matrix 1972 Pontiac Ventura II "Sprint" 1998 SVT !SOLD!
