LOL using the word "great milage" to describe an SUV economy is well... I dont even have to say it lol.... But I will say you are doing better than me now I am getting about 14 in the ML(W163) since I have the A/C full blast 24/7 when I am in the car and I drive faster during the summer since the A/C works better when you are going faster and less time in a hot car lol. |

D,
I get almost the exact mpg, I only have a 20 mile commute each way and it is 90% I295 at around 70-75-80 with some slowing down at caetain parts but I do considerd the mpg pretty good.

I live at 7400' and travel down to 5200' and back approx 100 miles a day. My average is 22MPG.
My record was 24MPG and then recently on a trip to Denver (400 miles) I used an octane booster
known as Turbo 108. 25.4MPG averaging no more that 4MPH over the posted limit. I am going to use Pulstar plugs and K&N air filter next. I recently used the plugs and filter on a 05 Tacoma
and picked up a steady 1-2MPG over my previous average. |
