Mpg Any Challenger?

I took my 1996 2.5TL for a 700mile trip.

MPG doing 80m/h was 28.78
MPG doing 75m/h was 30.5


I have one question though, my car seems a lil bit loud when I'm in D4 and I'm at a stop for example stopping at the stop light

See thread on this page " Very Important Info: Does your 2.5 Sound like a Truck?
982.5TL".

Great mileage. Mine will only get perhaps 25 mpg on road, but I have a problem w/ the torque converter lockup failing to lockup which really hurts road mpg. What does your rpm run at 75 mph?

regards
