To average 33 mpg on the hwy you have to drive in the 65-68 mph range or below.
People who claim over 30 mpg like to leave that part out.

Driving from NC to NJ up 95 I average about 34 MPG in mine. Then again my overall average is only about 22.5-23. I like to have fun when it's not long trips that I need to save that gas on.

I averaged 29.8 at 78 on a 61 mile trip. Averaging 23.3 over the last 2500 miles. It's been going up about .1 a week since I put the 80 mm TB , average speed of 36. Was averaging 22.5 on May 27th when I installed the 80.
