Quest GLE, suburban driving (not much traffic though) - 18 MPG which does not thrill me. It has 2000+miles on it, maybe will improve later. My second car Toyota Corolla(with stick) averages 36 MPG, i.e. twice of that under the same driving conditions on the same streets. |

| 1999 Dodge Caravan with 3.3L engine. Get about 19.5 mpg around town. | |
|
1999 Plymouth Grand Voyager SE, 980 mile trip from DC area to FL, driving freeways rarely below 75 mph, averaged 21 mpg with A/C on continuously. I'm in the same camp with codetalker about the Big Macs and Beanie Babies, but I do appreciate the playlands, so the kids can work off some pent-up steam at lunchtime. |

- '98 GC w/3.8L engine & 16" tires - OH to Ontario, Can, roundtrip, 65-70 mph, with AC on, got c. 22 mpg. - the overhead computer remains set on average mpg. The AC seems to cut the econonomy by 2-4 mpg. - have 15k and no problems so far and like the van very much; but am reluctantly anticipating problems, especially the transmission, due to the data gathered far and wide! |

| I have a 96 Grand Caravan withthe 3.0 litre V-6. In town I get 18 mpg and on the highway I get between 24-28 mpg. Oddly enough, I have gotten some of my best mileage driving fast, 75-80mph and I have the 3 speed automatic. | |

'99 Chevy Express Conversion- 17 MPG, all downhill, 70-75MPH, on 750 mile trip up I-75 to Detroit (vacation land USA). Collected all 12 beanie babies plus duplicates. Most importantly, TV/VCP eliminated Playland stop and with the porta potty we managed to cut 3 hours off our normal 15 hour family trip!! Knoxville got pretty smelly. |

1998 2500 Chevy Express 12 passenger 5.7L. Mileage is awful 9-10 mpg and Chevy says there's nothing they can do. Nothing appears in their testing. Unfortunately, there are no problems with the cars operation. Others indicate better mileage but that's not my experience. I'd like to hear from others with the same problem. |

1988 Chevy Beauville (12 pass 1 ton) 350 cu in 10.11 MPG on Calif fuel (adulterated w/10% MTBE) 12.2 MPG on Oregon gas. These are freeway mileages over the same route. City mileage is not much different. |
|
| Second tank on my new Odyssey was at 19 mpg. Mostly city driving with AC on. Should improve as we get some more break in miles. | |
| Just came back from the Smokies round trip (1575 miles) pulling a popup camper 1875 lbs, with luggage rack about 300 lbs with 3 adults & 3 kids, a dissapointing 13.9 mpg traveling 60 -70 mph. City driving with no load except the kids 18 mpg. Bought new in april only has 4785 miles on it since trip | |
