About a 10 mile drive to work on the highway at 75.

Now, I'm basing this on the reading I get from the indicator in the middle of the instrument cluster and it seems fairly accurate. MPG picked up after around 3K miles.

My daily commute consist of mainly highway but i live in the city so its a fair mix... If i am just cruising and not aggressively driving I can average 17 MPG but if i am aggressively driving I only get around 14 MPG....I have a 4.8 also....
