Thank you! If I do mostly highway driving I can get up to 25 mpg. I average around 21 mpg.

Oh the heat is up here. We'll be at 100 again today.

@06mistreSS thats good mileage for a V8 with 300HP Most of the time with 3.5 mixed driving isn't much different 22-25mpg difference being on highway I get all the way up to 35mpg if I keep it around 70. I can get 31mpg at 80mph. That is why I keep buying monte carlos power and efficiency. Its hard to believe the weather this summer setting records!
