Worst gas mileage ever!
So I just wanted to see what other members are getting for gas mileage. This is a thread for THE WORST gas mileage you have ever noted on your G. I got 15 mpg after calculating it at my last fill up. Yea, I had a heavy foot throughout that entire tank lol. I couldn't help but laugh because it's my own fault. So, lets see some numbers...

14-16 on the mountains up here in PA 40-60 percent throttle so wasn't too heavy on the throttle but heavy enough. Gave the suspension a work out though.. lot's of 10 mph decreasing radius turns and fun sweepers.
Then i realize, I wish i had a better suspension.
best ever 26.8 mpg highway @ 70-75 mph the whole time over a 350 mile trip.

Worst has been about 19 driving the PCH in a very spirited manner. Best was on the same trip, over 700 miles driving from Monterrey to Phoenix, and I averaged 27mpg. My G35 I used to average about 23.
Wow, really? 19? Worst ever?

I get about 17.5 on avg, I dip down to 15 tho sometimes when driving aggressive. Thats what my nav tells me at least.
Although when I bought the car the nav said about 20, I used a cleaner that you dump into the gas and i've never gotten above 18 now, lol.

To be honest, I never look at the gas mileage.. good or bad I still drive my car, I predict that by summer gas here in Chicago will get near or hit 5.00/gallon and I put premium in my car. I knew that when I purchased the car the gas mileage wouldn't be as great compared to my sister's civic or my dad's mdx and given I know that time to time I drive spiritedly, I knew that my enjoyment of the vehicle and with the issues it has given so far- none of it surpasses me enjoying my car as much as I do today and the day after.
Yeah, it was slightly over 19. Like I said, spirited driving on the PCH for about and hour and half. Aside from that, the worst I've gotten in every day driving is 21. I always end up around 23mpg by the end of the tank though. I usually get on average 400 miles to the tank, and when I fill up it only takes about 17 gallons, I have 3 gallons still to go.

I'm not worried about it. I just wanted to see what others were getting. Read the beginning post, I asked to state your worst gas mileage. All your doing is starting arguments. People can be concerned about gas mileage if they want to anyway.
