That was the best mileage I got on any trip except for a return trip from Tahoe where I got 26 mpg going downhill! Curious what you are getting in the City. I think I am getting 12-13 climbing up and down the hills in SF.
The other good thing about our car is that I did not need to fill up until I got to LA and I only used 3/4 tank, so I could have gone about 500 miles on a full tank. Gas is going for around $2.30 to $2.40 per gallon in SF and LA, but on I5, they were selling for $2.79 to $2.95 per gallon!
That's what I call "highway robbery"!
