what was the exact MPG? or did you not get that far. I manage to get 25 MPG in my heavy Impala with the 3800. I can manage to go about 370 miles before my low fuel light comes on and by the time I fill it up it still has 3 or 4 gallons still left in the tank.

With the 3400 I usually get around 330 miles... As far as per gallon goes I think the best I've ever gotten was high 28's like 28.7mpg or something like that but I usually get more around 25 or 26 sometimes as low as 23. So ya, 32 is pretty nuts

I do about 210 per 11 gallons but that is mostly city driving.

I got about 19 to 20 when I lived in Philly, now living in the burbs I get 20 to 21.

Highway I'm doing 34 MPG

I get about 140 miles to a tank...but then again, I only fill up $10 worth at a time


But as for the Alero, haven't measured the MPG in a while, but I remember I was happy if I got 280 miles to a tank...I guess that was only until the light came on, not to the full empty mark.

This past weekend I got 340 miles on 12 gallons, going about 75 on the highway. So thats about 30 mpg. I usually average about 24-25 mpg in city driving.
