>>Actual mileage, about Albuquerque to Las Cruces.
Oh, OK. That explains a lot. I could get 38 mpg on that drive. What do you get around town? That’s where I got my 23 mpg figure.
I don't recall; I've just been walking when I go around town -- it's a small town and there's no real reason not to (actually been in smaller towns for several years).
Last time I used it around-town when I was in Uni, and going ~10m/day for 30 days (+change) and a trip there and back to the national guard armory (probably 60 mi total for the weekend) would be about 360 mi / mo, I have about a 20G tank, so that's 18 MPG if I filled up once a month, and that sounds a bit too-frequent to me.
*shrug* maybe 27 MPG for pure city driving then? [/guessing]
