Somewhere in the neighborhood of 10 city, 20 highway. I think I may be overestimating my efficiency.

T/A - has seen a best of 26 mpg on highway 2:73's
Average is 20-23
Worst was 16 when I got it - it needed a tune up.

V6 got a best of 34 mpg.... then I added 4200 stall and 4:10's and fuel economy went down the sh*tter

My Lincoln gets 17 city and 28-30 highway and 22 city if my dad drives it. My 74 isn't on the road but I would estimate it to be abut the same as my old car which I filled 3x a week

79 t/a w/ 2.73 gears (only used for long trips) 14mpg. 11-12 w/ 3.23 gears (400/ 350th)
74 t/a - 10 (455/ ST-10 w/ 3.42 gears)
78 t/a - 10 (455/ ST-10 w/ 3.42 gears)

town or highway, the mileage is similar

22/26ish with my z28 depending on how much highway it sees. all highway it will touch on 30.

HHR gets 28 mpg regularly with stop and go traffic and regular driving. Have gotten 35 w/o traffic when I drive it nicely.
