Bill,

I think you can expect about 50 mpg overall average. I have seen 60mpg on a
"fun cruise in the country". Wasn't pushing, but wasn't trying for max
economy. Put in 3 gallons at 180 miles. Surprised me. On the other side, the
lowest I've gotten is 45mpg. My typical commute is 6 miles @ 30-45 mph and
10 miles @ 80-85 mph.
