"I know people are not interested in this these days with convenience being king, but a Camry with the manual transmission will get a few mpg better and will cost $1,000 less than the automatic. So if you are looking for cost savings that will beat the AT Camry"
 
As an owner of Camry manual transmission, I completely agree! Besides cheaper, it makes a big family car more fun.

Mix of 50% interstate and 50% in town driving gives me a pretty consistent 26mpg avg.
Best MPG yet was summertime, Air Conditioning on, Cruise set at 63, traveled 178 Interstate only miles - got 39.72 MPG

2008 Solara MPG update by crazedcommuter

I just filled up my 08 Solara 4 cyl auto with 501 miles on the tank. The tank took 17.0 gal with a top off to the top of the neck for 29.47 mpg avg. The computer read 31.4 mpg. The low fuel light turned on approx. 20 miles before I filled up and I still had a1.5 gal. reserve based on the 18.5 gal. fuel tank spec. It appears that Toyota programs the low fuel light to turn on with approx 2 gal left in the tank.
 
Travel consisted of a 115 mile round trip to Dulles Airport out side of DC for the annual antique plane/car show last Saturday in stop and go traffic with 2 teenagers. Four days of my 80 mile daily commute with 75% highway travel and a few local errands thrown in along the way.
 
The highest mpg I've ever attained was 33-34 on all highway travel and I just just clicked 13000 miles on the car.

crazedcommuter,
 
You will get your best mpg and slickest running engine in the 40-100 thousand mile range. But even at 120,000, my 1999 4cyl auto still gets a sweet 35-37 at a 72 mph cruise.
I drove a Toyota Versa at a 72 mph cruise and got 41 mpg. The 5 mpg edge was not worth the roomier and more luxurious Camry IMO. I absolutely believe that the 1999 is a much better car than my 2004. I hope to rent a new 2010 soon and give it a spin...
