Default Re: Great Gas Mileage to the Gaspe Peninsula.

30 MPG sounds about right. My 2005 base coupe got 32MPG on a 4 hour road trip. Cruise control set at almost 70 MPH.

I couldn't believe my calculation but it was true! Left on a full tank and set the odometer. Got to my destination and topped off the tank and measured the gallons I put in Vs the miles driven. My MPG was at 31 and change.

I remember when I bought the car everything I read said said it wasn't the best on gas. Those people who wrote the articles must have been smoking something! That hasn't been my experience.
