Replying to: markw45 (Sep 15, 2006 7:27 am) Silly question, but how accurate is the computer. I have a base S model, so I don't have it, but is it really accurate. Have you tested it yourself? I've got less than 800 miles on mine so far, and I've gotten 27 mpg on one tank and 20 on the other (all city, I've had the car for 6 weeks and only have 780 miles on it)
#23 of 154 Overall mileage so far.... by ken74 Dec 17, 2006 (8:13 pm)
So far I have put 1322.5 miles on my new Fusion V6. The car has a cumulative MPG average of 19.71. This is mixed usage driving (60% Hwy/40% City). I am keeping an Excel spreedsheet to track fuel costs, mileages, octane rating, fuel brand, etc....   My highest MPG per tank to date is 20.595 (dealer fill - high octane?) and the lowest is 19.144. Can't wait to see how the car does on a trip. Replies to this message: hercules00 (Dec 26, 2006 1:25 pm) explorerx4 (Dec 27, 2006 4:23 pm) buckeyepilot (Dec 28, 2006 6:42 am)
#24 of 154 Not too impressive by hercules00 Dec 26, 2006 (1:25 pm)
Replying to: ken74 (Dec 17, 2006 8:13 pm) All highway miles (averaging about 70mph) from Richmond VA to NYC and back got me about 22mpg in the Fusion V6.   On the same route, I have gotten about 18 out of a Sonata V6, 19 out of a Taurus, 27 out of a Camry V6, 26 out of an Accord V6, about 24 out an Altima I4 and 20 out of a Mazda6 V6. All the above were rental cars - fairly new with < 10k miles. I must also add that except for the Altima I4, teh Fusion felt like it had the weakest engine. Of course with Taurus 'the boat' you are scared of even trying to figure out how powerful it is lest its terrible handling does you in, but still the Fusion definitely felt underpowered. I still love my stick-shift Celica GTS, 32mpg+ on the above route Of if weighs just 2400lbs and is an I4 but it is faster than them I luv it (thought its altogether in a different category) Replies to this message: explorerx4 (Dec 27, 2006 4:23 pm) buckeyepilot (Dec 28, 2006 6:42 am)

Replying to: hercules00 (Dec 26, 2006 1:25 pm) i can get 18+ is my explorer v8 driving that same route, so i think you need to be a smoother driver. Replies to this message: buckeyepilot (Dec 28, 2006 6:42 am)
#26 of 154 This car is great by buckeyepilot Dec 28, 2006 (6:42 am)
Replying to: explorerx4 (Dec 27, 2006 4:23 pm) I get about 20MPG in the city and about 27MPG on the highway. I have the 2006 V6 Fusion.

#28 of 154 Re: 2006 Mercury Milan NYC Gas Hog! [dlang] by chrisford Jan 13, 2007 (9:00 am)
Replying to: dlang (Sep 15, 2006 6:57 am) What else do you expect in NYC traffic. I get 10-12mpg in my I4 99 Contour driving around brooklyn. I think the contour is rated at 23mpg in City, year right. I guess they didn't figure into account NYC traffic.
