#307 of 391 2007 G35S MPG by mtmikey Aug 31, 2008 (4:18 pm)
I have a 2007 G35S and in town here in Atlanta I get only about 14 MPG. Luckily for me I don't drive a lot. I have had the car well over a year now and only have 8800 miles on it, so as you see MPG is not that big of an issue for me. I tend to drive agressivly in town since I love to run this car so much.   On the highway, its a different story. Going on trips up to and from Louisville, KY my mpg has been around 21-22. Very good to me, once again running the car out a bit. : ) Replies to this message: keithl (Sep 01, 2008 5:19 am)

Replying to: mtmikey (Aug 31, 2008 4:18 pm) Thanks mtmikey! I am in ATL as well, I drive 18 mile commute in some light traffic, usually going about 45MPh with a bunch of lights throughout. I average 28-30MPH on a tank and usually get 22MPG. 14MPG would not be acceptable to me, but 19-20 would be. 21-22 on HWY seems low as well. I know the G revs about 600RPM more at 70 than my Acura does so I see how it can suck gas.

Replying to: keithl (Aug 31, 2008 6:36 am) I drive the same scenario and the same way for the most part. I actually find the average speed completely useless as 35 MPH for an hour will give you the same # as 70MPH for 30 mins....and stopped DEAD in traffic for 30 more. Too many variables. I still have no clue why I get better mpg on reg than premium from the same station with the same horrible ethanol in it.
#310 of 391 Crash by durangojay Sep 02, 2008 (7:42 am)
Well my trip back from Boulder was a disaater-lieratally. Hydoplaned off the road, spun twice down an embankment and into a treet. Multiple thousands of dollars in damage. No airbag deployment. Don't get that. But I was unhurt as the vehicvle took most of the force. But she will be out of commiission for a good month getting repaired. BTW my mpg up to that point was 23.3 for the whole trip until the accident. Sad ending, but I'm alright. Replies to this message: johninnj (Sep 02, 2008 9:48 am)

Replying to: durangojay (Sep 02, 2008 7:42 am) holy sh!t. how fast were you going? Is yours an X? That sucks...I hope you weren't staring at the mpg thing....I don't leave mine on "Instant" as I almost rear-ended someone once playing with it : ( Glad you're OK.

Only going about 50mph, but it was raining like hell and yes, I do have the X. But all the electronics in the car (world) couldn't stop this thing or control it. It took a tree. Thank God I have amazing insurance with a very low deductible, so I'll be back on the road in about 3-4 weeks. FYI, I was just driving along listening to the radio...then...WHAM off road into tree. Thank God I walked away....Thanks for the concern...Jay Replies to this message: johninnj (Sep 02, 2008 10:16 am) pscheid (Sep 16, 2008 5:41 am)

Replying to: durangojay (Sep 02, 2008 10:08 am) At least we can conclude the car is built well and safe. I crashed my old TL very hard and was 100% unscathed other than a mark on my wrist form the airbag pushing my watch. I praised that car for it's safety afterward...it was like 16k in damage. Nice to know these expensive cars live up to safety standards.

Absolutely!!! I don't care about the damage. We have a spectacular body shop here in Durango, CO and they will make her good as new I am sure. And I have great insurance with a low deductible, good decision there. But I am grateful that the carsh crumple zones worked well to keep me safe and sound. I'll repeat, I am VERY surprised that the airbag(s) did not deploy, but maybe I wasn't going as facst as I though when I hit the tree. It sure felt like they should have deployed!! But at $1,400 a pop, I guess I'm glad in a way they did not. I wouldn't be surprised if they damage bill was in the same neighborhood as yours - 15-20K. I don't think it's totaled. But what do I know? The body shop will have to tell me what is up. I was protected, that's for sure. I got a nice Dodge Durango for free to use until the vehicle is repaired. Should be 3-4 weeks, I'm thinking. Thanks, Jay
