IMO if you're driving this thing with the purpose of high gas mileage, you're doing it wrong.
Yes I am aware they both have 19 gallon tanks, in my 6 I was getting 20 mpg I drive 26 miles a day on freeway, People are taking this thread way out of proportion, I'm not driving this car to save money just expected A HUGE CHANGE IN THE GAS USAGE in a negative way and I dont see a huge one.
