Average about 18 mpg city before the K&N drop-in...almost 20 after...

Got about 23.5 on my way to Mobile, pre-K&N, doing 80-85 the entire time...I get better gas mileage in the winter for sure...No A/C, colder, denser air, engine only takes a couple minutes to warm up, which is negligible considering the traffic I sit in...Texas winter is like your spring in Canada...

I drive aggressive on my way home from work and on my way to the bar Friday and Saturday night, rest of the time it's normal driving...

Overall, not bad as far as I'm concerened...I spend $45.00 per 3/4 tank, I never run it lower than that, 93 Octane, and fill it about once every 6-8 days...I'm buying one more tank of gas a month than I used to in my Camry, but I absolutely love to get in my car and drive, and I couldn't say anything close to that before

Hey!

With a 65liter fillup, worst I've had is 360kms
And the best has been 480Kms

I can live with the crappy mileage... but I HATE the NEW price of gas.
I blame it all on Osam Bin laden , fcker LOL

After installing the Amsoil nano air filter a while back, I see an improvement of 2 mpg on the G, giving it a combined 21-22 mpg, or 24-25 mpg if I do 70-80% highway driving per tank. The filter has better filtration than the stock one and the oil-based K&N. I fill up on average 2 times a month on the G as my work commute is 5 miles one way, and I have my Corolla as a gas-saver alternative to use on my commutes.
