[QUOTE="MVanover, post: 1044116, member: 75690"] My '08 STA 4.6L V-8 has been showing 19-21 mpg on the instrument panel average mileage display. I do about 50-50 city/hiway driving. I thought that was a bit high and figured there was some problem with the computed average. So, I checked the odometer against mile markers on the hiway. Best I could determine was 4.95 miles at the 5 mile marker. Looked pretty accurate. I zeroed out the trip odometers and filled the tank. After 292 miles the next fill up showed 21.7 on the display. It took 13.87 gallons for a calculated mileage of 21.05 mpg. I did drive to the airport (34 miles mostly hiway) and back twice last week. To date I haven't done any long distance trips where I checked the mileage. Regardless, this truck get's better mileage than my old PT Cruiser GT. I'm pretty happy with it. [/QUOTE]
