I only get 19-20.
But I hardly ever need to drive on the highway, and I have an auto.
Maybe this fuel system cleaner that I used will help?

You are goingto get better gas mileage on the highway. No stop and go= better mileage due to the fact that you arnt supplying the engine with more fuel to get the wheels rollin. I hope everybody knows this and didnt post this cause they figured it was kinda a given.

i got 26 once when i was on mostly highway. in town i beat on it way too hard to get good milage. I think I went through a half tank in about 80-90 miles a couple weeks ago [8D].

and 95camz, FI aint cheap, andif you haveto pay to get blown ur no real man
