I think avg. 18 city, 22-23 highway. I'll need to get out my little book to get more precise numbers, but I'm happy with the fact that I only have to refuel about every 2-1/2 weeks. In my old car, I couldn't last 10 days.
[8)] Cruise on.

Before I switched to Mobil 1, gas mileage was terrible. First long distance trip after the change, I averaged 28 MPG. My daily commute during the week average 19.5 to 21 MPG. The occasional run against a turbo Subaru drops it to around 15-17 MPG. Control is the answer to the low MPG problem. And of course, properly inflated tires, right oil in engine, clean car vs dirty (wind resistance/slipstream issues)and anything else science can dream up.
Ultimately ... did you buy your PT for the gas mileage ???? [8)] [?] Or because it was what you wanted !! [^]

I have a 2001 Ltd automatic N/A (I think that means non-turbo). I consistently get 22-23 mpg in a normal week of 50/50 hiway/city driving. I've gotten up to 35 mpg on non-stop exclusively hiway trips.
