Flat driving behind a bunch of farm trucks at a steady 60 mph in 6th gear got me over 30 mpgs for about a 150 mile stretch. It was agonizing ... gas mileage while driving a Z should be half that :mad: :mad:

People sensitive around here huh...

Don't worry, it's just a question. I don't drive based on MPG :tiphat:

I got 33 mpg once going about 50-55 mph for 60 miles. I learned how to hypermile by driving a Prius for long distances before, so it's all about how you drive really.

Coming from the guy who spends $800 on a shift knob - we don't really understand you sometimes either :ugh2:
:tup:

:icon17: yep sensitive like the first time you get your balls tickled

Hebi hebi is in my heart. It wasn't 800 though. 50 usd or aboot 500 cad

Plus I'm already paying an arm and leg for gas in canuckistan

I read somewhere that traveling around 55 MPH at the highest gear yields the best MPG. Seems correct for the Z by looking at peoples comments.

Goal is smiles per gallon :D

55 in 6th gear, while drafting behind a semi-truck... Oh, don't forget to turn off the AC and keep the windows up. I bet we can hit 35 mpg lmao

I doubt that you drive aggressive.

I drive mildly aggressive and have only managed a best of 230 mile a tank.

Nah, never cared really. I only check to see that the tank is at least 1/2 full

Then again, maybe I'm too old to care:icon17:

Man ole man. I drive whatever speed puts a smile on my face. MPG, who cares. I just did a 900 mile trip down to Tampa, Fl and back for work. The back roads and small towns were driving me crazy until I got to the interstate.

When I drive to my Brother's house, 220 miles each way, I get there and back on one tank, with four dots left on the fuel gage. Done it many times. I try to cruise at 75 mph. I've checked a couple of times when I filled my tank (after 440 miles) and both times was just over 29 mpg.

I use to get 28,29 cruising@2500rpm's 75mph;
after adding the much wider wheels/tires...25,26 highway & 22-23 to & from work.

26-28 sounds about right for me on a 75 cruise control if i dont have to touch the brakes or gas for a bit. If im actually driving with traffic 20 is about avg

That's like my brother who drives 18 miles to work and back every day (36 miles round trip) in his manual Z. He constantly gets just over 400 to a tank. Then again, he also drives like an old lady.

I bet if I were to make the same commute every day, I'd barely break 250 a tank.
