I am going to post in the hybrid thread, but so far in about 1000 miles, my wife has been averaging 30mpg. Considering the EPA range is 29 city, 34 highway, I suppose that is not bad but I have been trying really hard to see the high end of that range, and I have not been able to achieve it, but mind you, I can't drive 55 (in Sammy Hagar voice), so perhaps that is the reason, lol

For some with really low MPG, that is really odd, my Ranger Rover, all 6000lb and all, with a 5 liter supercharger averages 17-18mpg city/highway, probably 80% highway. I'm not going to say no way should a GS 350 be worse than that, but, no way should a GS 350 be worst than that.
