Seeing as I put that thread off topic, I thought we'd split it off.

I get 27 MPG (Canadian Gallons) in the city; which is almost bang on 10L/ 100km. Makes it easy to see how I'm doing week to week with that easy math; if I drove 425 km I should only be putting 42.5 litres in the tank.

Highway I get 35-42 MPG. The huge fluctuation has to do with uphill/ downhill and speed. I figure I lose 10% economy just going from 110 to 120.

This is in a 03 Grand Am with a 3.4L V6.
