wow...the numbers are way lower than I was hoping for...I am in L.A. traffic in my Acura TL averaging 26mpg...sounds like the switch to a GS430 would be a nightmare

17 - 18 mixed diving. But highway miles are pretty good, around 24 mpg on a recent 240 mile trip.

Thanks for the info guys...the GS300 numbers sound about right and are in line w/ the EPA estimates, but the EPA combined for the GS430 is about 21.5, and I don't really see people getting that! I'm sitting tight waiting for the GS 350 I think!

My GS430 has 4k miles, and my daily 65 mile roundtrip commute takes about 2 hours total, mixed highway and creeping traffic. Like clockwork it gets 22-23 MPG.
