My car averages 20.6 mpg in my mixed driving for the last year and a half so I was pleased with the mileage. Once I got outside of Richmond there is a 255 mile stretch to Beckley WV that is pretty light on traffic. Aside from a fuel stop, I don't think I took the cruise control off so that may have something to do with the mileage.

My tires are the second set of originals but I have some PSS waiting at home to be put on. In the spring I'll make the switch. Again, I don't drive my car in bad weather unless i'm caught at an event/gathering.
