Even after driving like a grandma i still get 20.9mpg at most. This was after a few days of running premium.
Today I rocked out and gave it some gas. Just burned .3 gallons more than usually

what did you switch to?? the 180?? or back up to stock temp?? I've got stock but am planning to go to the 180, i currently don't do much highway driving but am getting about 22mpg in the city

22 mpg is pretty decent for city driving. The stock t-stat will give you the best fuel mileage. The 180° will lower your mpg a little. The 160° is the worst as far as economy goes.

Strictly city driving mine usually stays around 20 and it's bone stock

stock 2000 GTX and my readout says 14.8....mostly city driving tho
06-19-2008
I am now averaging 24 combined city and highway according to my handy program that's over the last 3 months. When doing just city I get down to about 20
06-20-2008
how much will the 180 tstat lower your gas mileage?
06-20-2008
It all depends on driving conditions and such. But I would roughly say 1-2 mpg.

I do about 80 miles a day and get about 28 highway and 24 city. I just use the cruise and am easy on the brakes and accel. That is with a motor that came from a junk yard for 300$. stock with a basic tune up.
06-27-2008
I lost 4MPG
06-28-2008
I lost 2mpg on the highway with the t stat and cai.
06-29-2008
I average 20 when I'm heavy in town, and around 24-26 when I drive like my mom. The best I got was 45 driving to denver with the cruise set at 80mph, and 37 on the way back. (downhill/uphill) I average about 35 highway around here and I live at 6,200 ft. One thing though that helps me is when I coast I do so in neutral...however I've heard this can be rough on the tranny. Is this true and should I stop?!

I got 19.6 avg on my last fill up, I drive mostly back roads ~60 mph. Stock GTP.
