#11 of 19 update - 2007 V8 by sls002 Sep 13, 2007 (8:59 am)
I have 7000 miles on my SRX now. On a long trip it averaged nearly 21 MPG. I am getting about 18 to 19 in local driving. My local driving is more highway as I live about 10 miles out of the nearest town.
#12 of 19 first 10,000 miles by sls002 Dec 12, 2007 (7:27 am)
not that anyone cares, but in the first 10,000 I have averaged more than 19 MPG overall. see here">

I must say I am disappointed in the fuel efficiency of the SRX vs my Seville. I traded in a 1996 and it got 18 in town and 22 on the Interstate. I've purchased this Dec 10th and had to leave for Atlanta right away and was very disappointed I only got 16mpg on the way up (565 miles). I stayed for almost 4 months and never got better than 13 in town. I assumed the hilly areas were to blame, but the last two weeks in "flat" old Florida have averaged 15mpg. Is this all I can expect? Anything I can change engine wise to do better? I still have 56 payments to go..... Replies to this message: sls002 (Apr 12, 2008 7:17 am)

Replying to: lfty7 (Apr 11, 2008 10:50 am) You should expect the SRX to use more fuel than a car does. Your Seville was probably rated around 17 city and 26 highway. The SRX is rated about 2 MPG's less in city driving than the Seville. On the highway the SRX is doing well to get about 20 MPG. Most of my miles are highway with some city as I live outside of the nearby city.
#15 of 19 04 mileage by dvcdon May 01, 2008 (1:06 pm)
The wifes 04 (V6 AWD) SRX gets about 16 about town and has gotten up to 22 on interstate long distance driving.   It's got about 54,000 miles on it now.   When I drive it I can get a bit over 17 about town. She's a bit quicker than I am I guess.

Replying to: joncee81 (Sep 12, 2007 6:34 pm) Is your mileage any better now? I have a 2008 V8 and I'm getting about 10.3 city there is a little over 3,000 miles on it.

My 04 (V8AWD) is getting between 6 and 9 in the city and 11 on the highway...
#18 of 19 Yikes is right! by deweydrug Aug 18, 2008 (1:49 pm)
I've been shopping for a 07 or 08 SRX, but after reading these posts about the mileage, I think I'll go ahead and buy that Avalanche I REALLY want. The mileage is better, even though it weighs a whole lot more. What's wrong with this picture? Replies to this message: sls002 (Aug 20, 2008 7:22 am)

Replying to: deweydrug (Aug 18, 2008 1:49 pm) This summer I am getting about 20 MPG with my 2007 V8 SRX. But what anyone gets depends on how they drive. If you can get an Avalanche Hybrid (not sure that is possible), then it might do better.
