Fuel Economy

on my 7AT, cruising at 63/64, I can get 31mpg by the meter. This is of course in flat Indiana though.

You just might be the only one doing 63/64 in Indiana. I do 74/75 and get passed regularly.

I have gotten 26.3mpg with an average speed of 72mph.

Mixed driving has been closer to 20. I'm sure once my Berk CBE gets installed it'll be closer to 16.

x2

We get 32+ mpg cruising at an average 63 mph on a 2010 7AT. It helps being in manual mode, though, so it stays in 7th gear with full lock up 100% of the time.

I can't go into 7th in manual mode. 6th is as high as it lets me shift.

Something is wrong then. I can get into 7th at 47 mph or so.

According to my gauge, I get 260 miles to the tank even driving like a grandma... That comes out to about 13-14 mpg... Something is wrong there?
