Anything from 18 to 24 is considered 'normal' by the EPA.

Now if you drive at 70 mph with the cruise control on an entire tank of gas, you'd get at least 25 mpg

I've noticed on my RL that using the cruise control helps MPG a lot. Never really noticed much of a difference in any other car but for some reason the RL likes Cruise.
I use it on back country roads etc. just to eek out a few more miles.

How many miles do you get on a half or full tank? I try to use the cruise function when i can as well.....but on a mostly crowded highway and city driving, the best I have gotten is about 280 miles per full tank of gas....
anybody else?

Honestly, I'm not a good judge of this as I work from home full time and don't drive much. But when I do hit the HWY I use my cruise control often. One street I use often to avoid traffic has a posted 35 mph speed limit. Cops are often running radar. I use my cruise control at 35 on the entire stretch and piss off folks speeding by just to get stopped by the cops.......love my cruise control, XM and lalalalalalallalal

I am getting 530 kms aprox 330 miles to one tank and my current tank is ever so slightly less then half and I am at 278km / 172 miles on teh trip meter.
cruise helps so much and accelerate slowly
