Seems about right, should get better as you pack on the miles.

Right now I am getting 19mpg in the city and I can 29mpg on the highway if i keep it ~75mph.

I'm getting an average of 21, by the computer's record. For 75% city driving, I think I'm doing OK.

computer is showing that I'm getting something like 11.5 MPG (or was it 11.5 MPH?). Regardless, it's a low number. Just this past weekend, I drove maybe 20 miles, and it went down 3 dots. 100% city.

Funny thing is, it's been the same every since I took delivery of the car. I have never reset the thing before.

17.6 is the average that's read on my dash. I've been wondering:
Keeping the car in higher gear = Lower revs = higher gas mileage?
