LOW MPG

[aidan80]

I drive a 2009 S 6 Speed Manual and just hit 4,000 miles. I get an almost constant 28mpg. The high was 32mpg which was the best part of a tank spent on the interstate/toll roads going between 60mph and 75mph.

So far I've got decent miles per gallon doing what is normal driving for me. I drive a mix of highway and city. The majority of my drive is back and forth to work and manage to go a nice constant 40mph without any real stops or too much traffic. I hit more traffic and a lot of stops coming into work and barley get much over 25mph.

I keep my RPM's low and change gears at about 2,500. I don't drive aggressively or fast. I keep the tires properly inflated and use big brand names to fill up, no more no name gas stations after my last car. Another thing that am sure may have an impact is it's typically not very windy in Florida (outside of hurricane season lol) I don't have many or really any steep hills to climb and the roads are typically dry and even. I'm sure my MPG would change if I had to fight more weather, uneven roads, heavier traffic and hills.
