    Unless by city you mean 6 miles each way at 45-60, with two or less lights between, I'd expect more around 20-22mpg.

    Thats round trip. 3 lights each way. 40 mph. Didnt think city mileage would be this bad! Thats the price to pay i guess.

    seems fine to me.

    I get 15-16 with my 00 GTP, and my round trip is 7 miles.
