19 / 29 I believe. You can get as high as 33 mpg though.

Thats exactly why. You have a relatively large engine/enough torque that it can be geared low enough on the highway.
Some cars with V8's get in the high 20's on the highway and about 15 to 18 in town. All that torque goes to waste around town.

Saw some posts for '03 TL-S that did 30-33mpg@80mph. Wonder if my '00 TL (non-S) can get any close.
