Default Re: Gas Mileage

I have an '06 Limited auto (N/A). I live in South Fla. & run the a/c quite a bit. 70 - 80% of my driving is city traffic. I learned the following stuff from this forum:

- Keep tires inflated 38 psi
- Mobil 1 synth oil/K & N oil filter
- K & N air filter
- Took out back seat (no kids, don't need to lug the extra 100+ lbs. around)
- Bosch Platinum plugs & Crane Firewires
- Keep RPM's under 3K, learn to accellerate slowly from stops
- Use cruise control
- Replaced the PCV valve
- Pop it in neutral when you see a red light ahead

My mileage is 23 - 27 mpg, depending on more city or more hwy.
