My 04 is getting about 13 with a mix of city and highway. Needless to say, the guys at the gas station know me well.

Best I can get outta my 85 is 16mpg. Now that's alot of stop and go Dallas traffic. 2.8L V6.
It also has 240,000 miles on it so as long as it runs good I'm not going to complain till it gets down to
10 mpg down hill

The lowest I've recorded has been 12 mpg, and that was all city, lots of idling, AC on all the time. The highest I recorded was near 25 mpg, and that was all highway at speeds less than 75 mph.
I usually get around 18 mpg in mixed driving.

I usually get around 18mpg with my 04 mostly city with some highway, I'll get around 20-22mpg on highways alone

According to My Overhead Information Center I'm Getting an Average of 18.8 Miles Per Gallon out of the Last 250 Gallons Used. I think that gauge will go up to 999 Gallons so that will give me a more accurate Average MPG

1995 Blazer 2-door 4X4LS package.
I usually get 290~310 for my 15 gallon tank... until the past two fill-ups. I ran 89 octane shell instead of my normal dose of 93 and I got 220 and 240 miles on the same 15 gallon tank. I was checking out whatswartlkkwas mentioning in a previous post.
I drive highway 25 miles one way to work, plus running around locally.
Guess what... I'm going back to 93 octane, there`s just too much of a difference in numbers and butt hauling.
Please be aware of pump fraud too - I pulled inlast weekin Cool Springs to get gaswith just under 1/4 tank. It said I pumped 17.3 gallons... I paid for the gas but, I told the attendant that it was physically imposs,ible to put that much gas in my vehicle because it only had a 15 gallon tank and I basically had 1/4 tank in it! She simply replied with, "Hmm..." This is the second time I've known this to happen. The other time was right after I got the truck, I just thought maybe it did have a bigger tank. I have never been able to put that much fuel init again, until the other day - a year later.

hmmmm well i have to say this is disappointing!
I have a 98 LS, it has 217k miles, but I keep the air filter clean (I put a new one very often), my Air cond does not work, I really drive without heavy acceleration, I don't have too much weight in the car, my sparkplugs are new as well as cables and batery... even son I got aprox 11 - 12 MPG


I have to say that I drive pretty much in heavy/stop and go traffic, but even so I am getting a very poor mileage!!!
