But a lot also depends on how you have the car setup too. I'm running 21's with 3rd row seats and extra infant car seat and a stroller. That's bound to affect gas mileage.

It really depends on how heavy footed you are when driving. My wife doesn't seem to care about accelerating like a bat out of hell so she gets above 17mpg in the city. I like to stomp on the accelerator so obviously I'm closer to 13-14mpg.
