Default 25.3 mpg

The display is saying 25.3. However last tank read 24.4 and i filled up it averaged out 23.6. Interested to see what this one will bring. That was earlier it has cooled down now. Most driving done between 75-80 then very little at 60-70. Calm and no wind. 37 out now.

You'd be surprised how well the gas is on this car. I used to make weekly trips consisting of 200 miles roundtrip and I would have 24 mpg, going speeds well over the speed limit.

here in Oregon, I daily mine to work going approx 55-60mph, I get approx 21.5 mpg that is included some sport mode fun usually when I'm at a quarter tank and at fill up.

While going to Seattle from Portland on most weekend going approx 70-75mpg I get approx 24.5 mpg

Haha my thoughts exactly. Gas economy on the car wasn't all that great to begin with, although I'm sure all of us are glad to not have incurred the gas guzzler tax that the competitors have tacked on prior to driving it off the lot.

To put the F on cruise control heading to Vegas, yeah, I can get about 27 MPG, but it becomes a bore after awhile. Driving in front of Kody (ISF4LIFE) and him trying to chase me down all the time, you can easily get down to the 14-16 MPG range...that guy is legit crazy! And after completing one track day, and seeing the MPG dip down to a very somber 9.4, it makes me relieved that gas prices were temporarily decreasing, albeit for a really short amount of time here in CA.

I'm just saying, MPG really isn't an issue on the car. It's heavy, fast, and very potent.

I also was shocked to get over 27+ MPG in my 2009 ISF on a recent road trip.

While I didn't buy the ISF for its MPG, its the first time I've bought a high performance vehicle and its been able to easily exceed the manufacturers estimated mileage per gallon.

I've had 27 on all highway miles. That isn't typical though since most of my driving is through city streets. My truck is more economical as my daily considering it doesn't need premium.
