Worst I saw was 19.9 in high winds and best was 26.9 coming down from the mountains.

I've done the same trip/speeds in the 3.0i a few times. With that I averaged around 21.5 MPG.

The good news was diesel was cheaper in most states than premium. In Minnesota, diesel is currently .25 above premium.
Average diesel price/gallon, here in Los Angeles, is about $3.15....
