Replying to: art234 (Feb 26, 2007 2:02 pm) I get in the low 20's on my M35x at a steady 70-75 or so using the cruise on an interstate. I average around 19 or so in my 40 mile commute unless the traffic backs up. The traffic is often running between 70 and 80. The car could get probably considerably higher mileage if the top gear was higher. Someone else mentioned running the transmission in Manual mode which can help. They have the transmission programmed to downshift at the slightest provocation. Putting it in M, means that you control that. Fine on an interstate, but maybe not for stop and go traffic. Try it and see what you think.
