^^ i agree, oh and its Le Mans haha

I know that all you veteran 8 owner's on this site are sick to death of us newbies starting threads and asking questions about mpg. Hell, I've only been here a weeks and I"M sick of hearing about it. So I promise this will be my last question on the topic. How the hell do half the people on here get 11-13 MPGs in the city and the other half get 15-18 in the city. Seems like a pretty substantial swing in what people are reporting. Yes, obviously how you drive is a factor. I'm just not understanding how one stock car could get 11 while another gets 18. There....I'm done. I shall live out the rest of my days not speaking of mpg.

^^^lol

Yeah, I dont think anyone (anyone that is talking anyway) knows why there is such a variation and if that variation is statistically significant.

I would just count on not getting great gas mileage. That is the deal. I dont know why it is so hard to understand (not you; everyone that starts the same mpg thread over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over

False impression. Only a small minority get in the 11-13 range, but since they complain so often, it seems like more. The two polls I saw at this site concerning mileage showed an average of 19 mpg (for mixed driving, I assume) and 16 mpg for city-only driving.

The numbers show that on the average, most of us are getting about what we should expect.
