Replying to: gene_v (Mar 12, 2009 1:29 pm) 26.6 on the highway with wind and hills sounds about right. I get around 20 with city and suburban driving. (no interstate.) I usually average 26 or 27 tops on trips. 2007 V6 AWD. Replies to this message: costello1 (Apr 12, 2009 6:28 pm) piast (Apr 13, 2009 6:58 am)

Replying to: costello1 (Apr 12, 2009 6:28 pm) Our recent trip from Carbondale, IL to Chicago: We started with 68 F, calm weather, speed of 75 mph, and computer reading of 24 mpg. As temp. and weather condition were deteriorated, so was our millage. We reached Chicago 5 hours later, with temp readings in high 30 F and late season snow storm. Our millage readings dropped to 21.5 mpg. We will wait for really warm weather for our next trip.

Replying to: deem2 (Jun 01, 2009 4:52 pm) Looks like the 4 cyl. is good for about 3 MPG over the 3.0 V6. Sounds about right.
#200 of 203 Mileage gets better by costello1 Aug 07, 2009 (4:14 am)
Replying to: gene_v (Jan 31, 2009 5:05 pm) I have a 07 xls , 4 wd ,6cl and my highway mileage is between 28-30 mpg. I just hit 31 on a recent trip according to my trip computer. I am very happy with this , can I trust the computer??? Replies to this message: comem47 (Aug 07, 2009 7:36 am) godeacs (Aug 07, 2009 11:44 pm) ark_royal (Sep 21, 2009 10:32 am)

Replying to: costello1 (Aug 07, 2009 4:14 am) I've found the computer to be fairly close, provided the readings you see are constant for a whole tank/trip   In my driving it varies a lot (between around town an highway). My best "peak" reading while on the highway has been 28MPG in my '07 LS V6 AWD. When I verified the total over the whole tank I averaged 26 on that tank. The only way for you to truly know is to compute it yourself by dividing the miles traveled between fill-ups by the gallons used over that time.

Replying to: costello1 (Aug 07, 2009 4:14 am) Probably not..... My experience (not w/Mitsus) has been these computers are overly "optimistic" by at least 2-3 mpg.....Best bet is when you gas up - fill up and track the mileage over several tanks - those numbers don't lie (if you do the math cporrectly....eh, eh).   Still, your mileage seems pretty good.....

Replying to: godeacs (Aug 07, 2009 11:44 pm) I got 30 mpg driving from Columbia, MO to St. Louis, and 28 mpg driving back to Columbia, MO. The total distance is like 200 miles. Once I got 32 mpg driving next to St. Louis. It is Chesterfield.   *Everything calculated based on 90/10 Hwy/City, 65mph on Hwy. ** It is a 2007 Mitsubishi Outlander LS, 3.0L V6 AWD
