^^^^thats great mileage drpatel---

my 93 gets about 300 to maybe 325 on a good day.

im assuming most if not all of your driving is highway.

I think my car could use a good tune up---maybe replace the 02's and some other maintenance ---im hoping that would help a bit.

Pardon my huge, bold text, but WHY DO WE HAVE A MILLION OF THESE "GAS MILEAGE" THREADS?!?!?!?!

If you think your gas mileage sucks, it probably does, and you should probably do something about it. These cars aren't light weight, and are very underpowred, therefore it uses a lot more gas than it should, and makes you **** bricks when you watch the gas pumps

Probably because gas is going up everyday (esp 91/93) and our cars guzzle it
