I finally broke the 30 mpg barrier on a tank of gas. I had to make 2 trips to Boulder (up 93, no less) to get 358.5 miles from 11.82 gal of gas.

Nicely done! "The back way" as i call it, is quite fun if you dont get stuck behind a big truck!

And stuck is what you are without a turbo. [img]http://coloradomazdaclub.com/forums/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif[/img]

I never will. I'm always jumping from 12 to 20 mpg depending on my driving and traffic.

On this car.... no. But my last fill up was something like 29.5 mpg average. Which is damn close.

My old Saturn SC, around town I would get 30-32 mpgs. Highway would be more like 35-37. On track would be something like 18 mpgs.

I only get about 280 miles on a take of gas. My average is about 22

Yeah thats about what im at sometimes lower if i drive hard

Just a funny lil FYI I got bout 30MPG on a tank of gas to Vegas [img]http://coloradomazdaclub.com/forums/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif[/img] Was quite awesome.

My car is between about 18 and 28 depending on driving.

I'll never get there in this car. My 6i, I'd get over 30 when I had a long commute, and averaged 34.3 when I drove back to NY last summer. I tend to get about 235/240 out of my tank.

In my Zoomie I used to get about 33, the CX I'm about 20, not horrible for an SUV, but still miss filling up every 2 weeks instead of every week.

i get 30.5 right know (i dont know how but i do )

I get around 24-27 in my 6i mtx...that is about 80-90% city driving. I am told the engine isn't fully broken in until 15k miles. I am about 1/2 way there... curious how the new tires and pcm reflash will impact this, but will be hard to tell
since it's been colder recently...

I can and still do, if I can ever remember to keep out of boost.. The best I ever did was 37.4, on the way up to breckenridge across the 24.

Was commuting to Boulder and back last week. Got 33.4 MPG using the Hwy 93 route. I also saw 4 cops north of Golden on my Thursday AM commute... all parked along the area before getting to the dump.
