22-23......L/100km!

I try not to switch back to imperial settings as I see something like 10.8 mpg which depresses me. That is for all 3 of my vehicles, by the way, driving around the city for the most part. Thank God Costco has less expensive premium fuel!

Oh well, could always buy a Prius if get tired of filling up.

On the trip to new era, about 45 min of cruise control at 70 w three people got an average of 17.5

I asked mike to turn off my v4 mode while I was there.

Coming home I couldn't stay in the slow lane cruising at 70, but I would say 40 outta the 45 min drive I was at 70 w cruise = 16.8.

I hated the truck going into v4 around town and droning the **** outta me. Also constantly goin in and out of it was annoying. Now my mileage will be the same because I'm not going on road trips and I like the quietness and drivability of it now.
