My '80 Scout II gets 6mpg if I baby it. If I drive hard I'm getting roughly 4mpg off road I'm getting about 1.5mpg. My Camaro gets amazing milage compared to that. Honestly I have no idea what I get, lifetime is currently 15.6 according to on star

A lot my driving is around town and I average about 16.3 mpg and about 310 miles per tank. The car only has 2400 miles on it, though, and I expect that to be better after 5K miles or so.
