Anyone checked their mileage?
Anyone checked their mileage?
I'm still working on my dealer supplied full tank of 93 octane, and with over 200 miles I am still showing 1/2 tank. Chrysler says 21 city, 28 highway and I have been putting on mostly highway miles, but so far mileage looks as if it should be good. Also mileage usually increases as the engine is worn in, so I'm pretty pleased.
I've got 3,125 miles on mine. My usual driving is a mix of city and interstate. I'm getting right at 23mpg. And I still like sticking my foot in it to hear the pipes in first and second gear. I did take a long intersate trip about 1,000 miles ago and I got 27.2 mgp highway. I'm happy as can be. Much better mileage than I get with my 4.0l Explorer.

Just returned from an 8000 mile trip around the US. Crossfire ran great, tires are OK, got about 27 miles per. Turned a lot of heads on the trip, even in Las Vegas. Only problem was tire inflation light kept going on on cold days. All this car needs is a little more horsepower, then it would be perfect. I wish DC would come out with a upgrade.
sambo 13: Just as I drove the car off the lot the tie inflation lite came on. Drove around the block and back to the service area. The right rear tire was about 4 lbs shy of spec. Filled to spec, and the lite went out, nev3r to return. However, that 4 lbs does not fall within the lite's specc so I think it was coincidental. Anyone else have this lite issue?
Mine came on once. Caused by a punctured left rear tire. Tire was repaired and lite has been off ever since. I do check my tires when I wash the car (once or twice a week) and adjust the pressure as needed. I have a compressor w/ 25 gallon tank in my garage. Makes airing tires very convenient.

Wow!!! 8000 mile trip - awsome!!! How long did that take :?: Too bad you didn't let us know you were coming to Vegas - we would have met you on the Strip and really turned heads!!!
VegasCrossfire,
Trip took 5 weeks. Lots of side trips and stops along the way. I should have posted my trip, too late now. Seeing 2 Crossfires together would have pushed everyone over the edge. I'm going back in August. I'm trying to rent a condo for 4 months, I want to see if I can give up Florida and move permanently.
