Replying to: higgledy1 (Jan 11, 2006 6:43 pm) That is great news. It's very well documented here that milage improves after break-in. You probably have 27-28mpg averages to look forward to.   -juice
#46 of 87 '00 Legacy Sedan 5MT, 68K by alaskanwill Mar 05, 2006 (1:55 pm)
16-18 in the winter (COLD starts), 20-21 in the summer (very little AC usage). I have a roof rack on in the summer.   These numbers are for exclusively city driving, including lots of short hops.   2 summers ago I drove from Anchorage to Seattle with the cruise control at 90 most of the way, then back up to Anchorage from Denver. I got 24-25 MPG with my mountain bike on top of the car.
#47 of 87 06 LLBean Wagon by bat1161 Mar 22, 2006 (10:29 am)
2006 Outback LL Bean Wagon H6 5600 miles so far. Average MPG is 16.73855 after 28 tanks of gas. That also includes mixing between premium and 89 grade gas. Mostly premium though.   Worst mileage = 13.31 Best mileage = 23.14 (on 48HRS run)   My driving is a mixture between highway/city with LOTS of stop and go.   Hoping for some improvement as the engine gets more broken in.   Mark Replies to this message: ateixeira (Mar 22, 2006 2:16 pm) bat1161 (Mar 23, 2006 10:27 am)

Replying to: bat1161 (Mar 22, 2006 10:29 am) You should see an improvement, she's still very green. My mileage did not reach it's peak until 15k miles.   -juice Replies to this message: bat1161 (Mar 23, 2006 10:27 am)

Replying to: ateixeira (Mar 22, 2006 2:16 pm) That's what I figure. I've also started driving a bit more conservatively. Also just keep the AT in "regular" drive. I noticed a mileage improvement from when I kept it in Sport mode (although not as much fun). Hopefully, in a few years, Subaru will have a 6MT H6.   Mark
#50 of 87 '06 legacy 2.5i se by tima3 May 07, 2006 (7:13 pm)
Just returned from a trip to Gatlinburg from Cincinnati...   31.5 mpg. actual overall including a trip to Clingman's Dome in the mountains. 34.5 mpg on the road at 65-70 mph. I am a bit surprised at these numbers but they are real.... and I expect they will improve a bit(only 2200 miles on the car) The mileage drops significantly when having fun with the sportshift... :-0 oh well.....

#52 of 87 Legacy 2.5i by twrx Jun 20, 2006 (5:29 pm)
tima3, those numbers are real. I have a 2005 legacy 2.5i wagon auto. I reset the trip odo B when we went to Cololrado last summer. I got 30 average for 5000 miles. I never reset it and the car now has 28,000 on it and for the last 17,000 I have gotten 25.8 mixed mileage. Recently I went to Terre Haute and back (220 mile round trip). The speed limit is 60 and I obeyed it and got 34 mpg. I get about 32 at 70 mph when I go to nashville. I am now getting 23 city. My good mileage began really at about 20,000. All three of my previous Subarus got their best mileage beyond 20,000.   It's not a hybrid but I'm thrilled with the mileage.   Bruce
