I call it city driving because I generally avoid the highways, but there's a fair amount of highway driving involved in my daily route (or at the very least 60 mph frontage road driving).

I drive like an animal and I know my work parking structure driving up to 4th floor with big old speed bumps doesn't help the cause.

I have a friend who got his wife 11MPG vanity plates for her Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8

O I forgot to add when i do get on the freeway the 5 times I've actually been in 6th gear I get like 26-28mpg that's a crazy difference from city driving.

Yeah, on the freeway it isn't bad, I get better economy than my Maxima, and on my drive from TX to CA I got... 27.4MPG? Maybe a touch past? 500 miles between some of my fill ups

I get 16 mpg's... I fill up at 5 dots so.... no issue here.

I get about the same 19 MPG in the city. You must like to have fun traffic light to traffic light.

Wow this is funny I was just Driving around yesterday with the --- lines haha I wanted to see how far I could go. I probably went another ten miles after I got the --- lines. Adrenaline was kickin In!

I usally fill up when I hit 4 dots.
Just filled up yesterday on 4 dots/231 miles, and took 14.5 gallons (calculated 15.9mpg).
The trip computer said I only had 40 miles left on the tank (4.5gal), that would mean only 8.8mpg! Just shows how wacky the gas guage is!
