You're makin me blush Ron.

Where are you located? (don't say Toronto - you have to narrow it down) - I have family in Hagarsville.

Windsor, where someone is always doing the math to decide if it's worthwhile to hop across the border to fill up in Detroit. I don't make a special trip, but if I'm going there anyways, I make it a point to fill up on the US side.

We need to hear from other parts of the world, to truly see the grim reality, of the cost of gasoline.

I range anywhere from 16 to 23 MPG.

Since my 280 is my daily for at least another couple months, most of my driving is in and out of traffic jams, freeways, and surface streets. I drive though all kinds of conditions.

My average for my recent roadtrip of the Southwest was around 21 MPG.

.....Now what's this about a fuel change?

I live 20 minutes from the boarder and work retail, so all day long I hear about how much cheaper gas and everything else is here.

But as a college student (and simply as an American and traditionally paying lower prices) this gas situation is putting a squeeze on things.

I now average around 30 mpg highway, 20s in the city if I keep my foot out of the firewall. I am running an L28ET, T03/04E turbo, Supra 440cc injectors, 20 psi, etc., etc., and a nice aftermarket engine management system. I run 40 degrees of timing at cruise with an AFR of 15:1 and overrun fuel cut (injectors stop fueling on throttle lift).

My old tired '73 240 with all the smog stuff AND an auto trans got 22 coming back from MSA. I was impressed.

i got 26mpg hiway.(4.5 litre gallon) the #s i see here are like hummer mileage.( 12,13mpg) for a vehicle that wieghs only 2400lbs you'd expect over 30mpg. my brother-in-law has a 95 eldorado and he claims 28mpg hiway. don't make sense.

I don't know about over 30 but 12-13 tells me something is wrong.

For the most part, I baby my car. But only because I've been in too many accidents and have been injured. There is, however, times when I drive the car like it wants to be driven and she still gets about 22-25. It's kind of funny how my toy gets better gas milage than my recent daily driver (my supercharged Bonneville that I just sold). When I do a lot of highway driving, my milage gets a little worse (but not much.) That's because Kharma can't seem to stay under ninety and she's got the 4 speed.

6.1 mpg, 3.90 rear for now, 7k rpm as long and as often as possible LOLLOL

Of course that is at the track. My DD actually gets 20 mpg in town and 24+ on the highway, Chevy 2500 diesel and fuel prices suck. $4.29/gal at the last fill up.

Ahhhhhh Windsor. Home to some very beautiful casinos that my donations helped build, as well as some really beautiful wildlife! You'd be amazed at what they'd do for a looney!

Oh...back to the thread, hell I don't know. I put in gas, the gauge goes down, I smile when I drive. Nuff said.

Just finished my first tank after the winter's sleep, and only got 15.4 mpg ('78 280Z). However, I couldn't find anything but 10% ethanol, which cut things a bit. Last year, I was getting around 17 mpg on "real" gasoline, and that was after adding a 3.9 diff, replacing the 3.545 stock unit, so that should have knocked off another 10% or so. Thus, if I could find real gas, and put the 3.54 unit back in, I'd probably get 18 to 19 in the city. I don't do much on the highway with the Z...

Mark,

So what's wrong with burning that good Illinois corn instead of feeding people with it? Farmers are getting more for it and laughing all the way to the bank.

I think we can all pretty well give up on seeing real gas ever again.

We just have to live with a 20% hammering on mileage and paying more for the privelege.
