Still learning what everything does inside the car. How do you find out how many miles to the gallon you are getting? Is it on the digital reading on the dashboards? If so how do you find it. Sorry I'm a bit thick.
Nothing so technical. Fill up tank - set odometer to "0". Drive a lot - until you need gas again. Fill up tank - divide the number of miles you drove by the amount of gas you needed to fill up the tank...
All city driving, 18 - 19 mpg. I shift mostly a 3k rpm and use 5th gear as often as possible, but I do have fun with it. Early '04. The engine does have a miss at idle that the Chrysler techs can't feel and the engine isn't reporting any errors (so of course it doesn't exist), so it could be my low mileage is due to something not functioning as it should.

Personally, even if I got only 10 MPG, I would still drive the car hard!! And I do not care how much gas costs...

I have a 2004 LTD Coupe. Here's a screenshot of a spreadsheet I keep.
I've used this for every car I've owed, since the creation of spreadsheets (shows he's a geek).
I don't get great mileage, but it beats the 13 MPG I was getting with my SUV.

I consistently get 31 mpg on the highway trips. I have a 6spd and I use the cruise control as often as I can (with the top down of course). In the city, where I get into it more often, I average about 19-21 mpg. Where I live, there is no rush hour or even highways that I take around town.

Ask the dealer to check it out... if it’s under warranty, push to have them check that out!!

Chrysler doesn't care about it, so I'm not going to either.
I do appreciate your offer though.
