Drive most days 4 miles to gym and later in the day another 6-10 miles. Local not much highwy get 14 mpg on 93 octane. About 1 time a week I do a 40 mile round trip run gets everything warmed up real good. If on the highway trip I get 19 mpg. 93 octane 2011 LX570 loaded with 30k miles on it. I also drive like a old man, smooth no Jack rabbit starts hi way driving at speed limit.

Recently did 800 mile round trip she returned about 15MPG, granted I was 85-90 the whole time but I'm satisfied. The LX is usually my commuter put around 90 miles round trip everyday, reverse commute from the Bay to the Valley and I usually get like 16-17 mpg. I dont feel the commute though since this thing is so damn comfy...

I have excel spreadsheet on every gas tank refill in my 13 LX since purchased new (April 2012). At 34,900 miles, I get average of 14.2 mpg. Most miles on toll roads, freeways & interstates. If I am able to use cruise control, it is set at 85. Have built-in radar & laser zappers, so I drive fast. This is my 4th LX and have bought 13 new Lexus vehicles over the years. The LX is the best highway vehicle I have ever owned.

I am talking about the 16'; I usually use customize mode, ECO engine, Sport suspension, ECO A/C; if you drive in city like me 100% with some incline, 11 MPG range is what will be showing on your dash, be very gentle you can get high 11s, but I'm having low 11 and if you always late, it will drop below that.
If you take it on freeway and it is level surface, around 70-80 mph can hit near 20 MPG
Plan ahead on this big truck if you want to save fuel, which won't be much anyways
If you always woke up late, than just go pay for the electric bill for you nearby gas station more
