With crappy Chicago winter blend gas, I get 27mpgs. When it gets warmer, that figure will touch 30-31 mpgs. This is 60-70% highway/ 30-40% bumper to bumper rush hour.

Not bad for a car with 112K miles on it.

I wish we could figure out why tibs have such a huge difference in gas mileage. I reached 31MPG ONCE and that was on a 200 mile trip on the interstate, following another car and a steady 70MPH.

I live in really hilly areas (always travelling up or down a hill). Maybe that has something to do with it. I live at the botom of a steep hill, so every time I leave my house I have to go up it.
