I wouldn't mind better mpg, but I know the trade off would be either luxury, performance or money in the bank account, or all of the above.

I got around 21.6 mpg overall avg, and easy to get around ~25 mpg cruising around ~70mph on the freeway.
They're actually pretty efficient for being 300hp and with the stock gear ratios. I mean, we have 5 speeds that run at 3k rpm @ 70 mph, but a car like my mom's 2002 MDX only runs at 1.8k rpm at the same speed. Still, we can get 25+ mpg.

I just did 150 highway miles.
17.1 MPG
(Calculated by me dividing miles by gallons of gas refilled.)

Our G's gas mileage is PATHETIC.
REALLY pisses me off.

17.1 mpg on the highway? I usually get that with 100% city driving.
