Replying to: tidester (Jun 05, 2008 7:40 pm) the bottom line, some of these cars do not get the milage reported that others do, and no one has the trouble shooting skills or the ambition to find out why

Replying to: fishyubo (Jun 05, 2008 7:19 pm) Up and down those hills of SF? Occasional real City gridlock? 22/27? Not a chance - even if you had electric motors helping you out. Am seeing a solid 24+ out of my SL AWD but at 70% 80mph highway- no hills and little 'gridlock'.
#43 of 100 600+ miles of HWY.. by silverrogue Jun 09, 2008 (4:15 am)
Just did a round trip with they family, 95% highway driving. current mileage: 1810 A/C on cruise control used about 60% of the trip speeds ranged from 60 to 75 mph with cruise on 70 raod conditions: flat and dry; as we were going up through Ohio to Cedar Point. going up we averaged right at 30 mpg coming back it averaged 27 (tons of headwind most of the way home)   Prior to this trip I filled up and my mpg averaged 23.6 for a 60/40 city/hwy mix   So far I'm very happy with the vehicle.

Replying to: silverrogue (Jun 09, 2008 4:15 am) First tank: 34, 2nd tank: 33. 70/30 hwy/city. Some slightly spirited use of CVT during 2nd tank on rural hwy. 65-70 mph on hwy. Original Conti 4x4 Contact tires. Replaced with Avids during third tank, so will likely improve. Altitude: between 5600 and 5900 MSL. Driver only. Lots of A/C on first tank, some on 2nd. Regular fuel. Replies to this message: pitkeys (Jun 14, 2008 9:29 am) stevedebi (Jun 26, 2008 4:52 pm)

Replying to: pitkeys (Jun 10, 2008 8:09 am) 3rd tank (1st on Avids) = 35+.   Same roads, same WX, same pump, less A/C, but 300+ pounds for part of the distance. No hypermiling tricks. Replies to this message: stevedebi (Jun 26, 2008 4:52 pm)

#47 of 100 REAL WORLD MPG by aceonthebeach3 Jul 14, 2008 (3:07 pm)
i just a got a 2008 SL AWD, I have put 1100 miles on it and I have got 17mpg on every tank. I do drive 99% city(stop and go) I also drive really fast. I am sure if I would slow down it would be in the 20mpg. Replies to this message: captain2 (Jul 15, 2008 6:25 am) tamoshanter (Jul 16, 2008 3:06 am) aceonthebeach3 (Jul 17, 2008 8:27 pm)

Replying to: aceonthebeach3 (Jul 14, 2008 3:07 pm) not exactly 'real world' is it? very few of us, drive entirely in City gridlock and further don't drive like the car is being performance tested by a car magazine. Under the conditions you outline, I would think that 17 mpg is actually good! For my part, between 24 and 25 mpg, driving about 50-50 and also driving quite 'normally'.

Replying to: aceonthebeach3 (Jul 14, 2008 3:07 pm) even with lots of stop and go, i would think you would get slightly better than 17 mpg. do you have lots of hills? how do you accelerate? do you stay on the gas even though you see a red light coming up? there are certainly ways that the mpg should increase without resorting to hypermiling techniques. even when i'm doing a little more city driving (60% highway, 40% city), i'm still averaging above 20 mpg. but also making sure usually the car is empty and not accelerating or taking turns like my 20 year old son. i've also noticed that using the A/C has not dropped the mileage noticably at all.....has anyone else noticed that? is that progress with newer compressors, etc.?

Replying to: tamoshanter (Jul 16, 2008 3:06 am) No hills, I accelerate fast most of the time. I have a heavy foot and that is the main MPG factor. I am still happy with the car
