So anyway computer said i averaged 26 mpg. set the cruise at about 70.

just wondering if the trip read outs are pretty accurate on these cars
that seemed pretty good to me
I personally don't trust those to be very accurate. Your best option is to set the trip meter to 0 when you fill up...then when you fill up next time divide the number of miles on the trip meter by the number of gallons you put in. That's about as accurate as you will get. I think if you're doing an almost all highway trip you may be able to squeeze out 28-29 if your lucky.
