#15 of 59 99' GLE MPG by nissanfreak87 Mar 02, 2006 (1:52 pm)
I've got a 99' GLE and I drive around Cincinnati and in between Lexington, KY and Cincy. I've been averaging just over 26mpg, with about 97,000 miles

Replying to: poodog13 (Feb 24, 2006 6:30 am) Auto. All the postings about the 3.0L gas mileages makes me wish I had a 2001 instead of 2002. I've never done better than 23 and that was hwy and premium. Replies to this message: poodog13 (Mar 07, 2006 6:53 am)

#18 of 59 After Market Add Ons for MPG by poodog13 Mar 13, 2006 (6:13 am)
I just bought an 06 Maxima SL and am wondering if anyone has done anything to boost MPG, such as high-end air filters, additives, special spark plugs, etc.   Any proven suggestions out there? Replies to this message: holcomb1956 (Mar 17, 2006 8:20 pm)

Replying to: poodog13 (Mar 13, 2006 6:13 am) Poodog, I have a 06 SE, I am not sute what it gets but I had an 04 Se w/35k that did get 33mpg on the interstate. I would fill up, get on the interstate and drive 300 miles. I had a free flow filter in it as well as a tornado in the throttle body. Total cost for the two was just over $100.00 but as to the 06 SE, I haven't really had it on the road with just myself in it. By the way, I used regualr gas.

Replying to: silverfox1 (Sep 19, 2005 6:14 pm) Silverfox1,   I have two 06's, they get about the same, i.e., in town between 17.9 - 19.0. On the road, if I can keep my toes out of the fuel injectors and set the cruise at 72, I can get right at 30 both both are new and not broke in well yet. My 04 Max SE got 33 on the interstate but I had a tornado in the throttle body and used a Hog air filter. The 04 also had 35 k on the speedo. Hope this is of help to you.

#21 of 59 2000 Maxima City MPG too low by dmaljunk Mar 22, 2006 (6:58 am)
Hi, On my 2K Max GLE with 77L miles I get 28mpg on highway but I get around 13mpg in the city. I mostly drive in the city (NY) with constant stop and go and my trips are usually a few miles at a time. I put in Premium and had plenty of maintenance done on the car, so it's in good condition. How is my highway mpg pretty good while city mpg is way below average? Replies to this message: lmacmil (May 20, 2006 3:06 pm)
#22 of 59 Bah! by perna Apr 21, 2006 (11:55 am)
I have an '03, and average 24mpg 80/20 city/highway. I use 93 octane.   It's a small price to pay for such a fun car to drive. I suspect Nissan hooked me for life with this car (it's my first).

Replying to: dmaljunk (Mar 22, 2006 6:58 am) The car never gets warmed up in your short city trips so the choke is on, idle speed up, etc. My wife's Highlander suffers from the same poor mileage due to her <3 mile commute.
#24 of 59 1990 SE - 5 speed by moms_max Jul 16, 2006 (1:51 pm)
Hi everyone... My "oldie but goodie" consistently gets 24-26 around town, and 28-29 highway. I've always used regular gas... and have lived in Southern Florida (both coasts), Colorado (western Slope), and now North Carolina. I l-o-v-e my car.....
