Mine is bone stock I get 11.5-12.5 in the city. I drive 4.2 miles to work one way and rarely get over 55 mph. I have taken it on one 2 hour drive and averaged about 18 mpg, but that was before the 60k, once I get my stock air box situation straightened out and possibly a new MAF, I will take it on another long trip and see what happens.
