Default Your 300/330 actual Mpg on Regular (Not your all time best)

What is your actual mileage with regular fuel? The threads I've gone through tend to have a bit of bragging, but what is your real world mileage? It sounds like the 350's get quite a bit better in terms of mpg's but I'm not sure by how much.

Thanks.

My '95 300 gets 21mpg. I drive mostly highway with heavy traffic (morning and evening commute). I don't drive it very hard, but I can get up to 22.5mpg if i drive very conservatively.

My 99 ES300 usually gets between 22 and 26 mpg with mainly in-town driving. Just took a 1500 mile round trip, only highway driving at 74 mph. Got an average of about > 28 mpg.

04 330 - daily driving with mostly heavy highway traffic, I get around 26-27mpg. On a road trip I took from Houston to Dallas, I got around 30mpg going about 75 the entire way. The 330's get much better mileage than the older 300's. My old 00 es300 got around 22-23mpg on the same daily drive.

97' 300.... about 60/40 around town/ highway. 69-79 mph cruise target depending on the speed limit. I use A/C about 70% of the time. Quite a heavy foot, aggressive maneuvers and hard braking. Car is in excellent tune w clean filters, new plugs etc, M1 synthetics. I get 17-19 on average. On a long highway trip I can hit 25-26 if traffic is light.

I suspect your right it is mostly bragging BS. That and the average age of a new ES buyer is about 56. A boomers driving habits are not comparable to someone relatively young like myself in a hurry...
