Over the course of a year I ave just a hair over 25 mpg. So most of my driving is 70-80 mph on I-70.

The 08 automatic only has <17,000 miles on it & is driven mainly by my wife to work once in a while. She ave about 23.5. Occasional tanks work out to 25. When we first bought it from a dealership 500 miles away.....(this was the only long-sustained trip either one has been on)....it ave over 26 mpg.
