My average is 18-19 MPG mixed city and highway driving. I cant complain but I have noticed since turning off the DOD I rarely ever see over 22 MPG. I think my all time best post DOD deactivation trip was San Antonio to Houston (down hill most of the way) at 23.8 MPG. Back when DOD was enabled 22-23 MPG was childs play even at 75-80 MPH. Granted the gulf states are flat, but when the car was less than a year old with DOD still active I achieved 26.7 MPG AVERAGE on a trip to Georgia and back.
