Not bad mpg.
Took a trip down to San Diego over the weekend. I had the climate control on and traffic was moving nicely (80) on the way down. Coming home was another story. Heavy. Anyway, I got 24.7mpg which I thought was respectable. Any thoughts?
Did you hit all the traffic on the way down or back?!?! It waaaasssss HORRIBLE!

24.7 was highway and city. 215 miles total. Traffic going down was light, actually fun 
Probably a bit too fast :wow:
I had about 20 miles of city driving. Coming home was tough Sunday night. Anywhere from 75mph down to stop and go. So, I guess I'd consider this 24.7 a combined figure. Still seem low?

I did a trip to Youngstown, OH this week. I got 29.7 MPG between Raleigh and Ohio. That includes pretty much the whole state of West Virginia which is almost entirely mountains. That's with 3 people in the car and about half loaded with luggage. I usually set the cruise at close to 80 with the A/C on auto.
I usually get about 30 on any road trip, loaded or not. Best I've ever gotten was 33 mpg on a trip out west. The mileage in this car has been better than expected, to say the least.
