Driving 80% highway and 20% spirited city, I was able to get 350 miles of range out of it.

Car was reading 27 mpg for the first half, and came down to 25 near the end of the tank.

I haven't done a full tank of complete city, and when I do it's usually when I'm driving aggressively.

I feel the 6th gear is sufficiently tall enough, and overall I'm getting a lot better MPG than I expected. No I do not drive like Jimmy :p

Mine's showing 19.4 on the dash at about 1000 miles. That's basically all city driving with lots of stop and go in bumper to bumper traffic. I've also been varying the speed like they tell you, so I expect it to get better.

The snow tires are on and it's been slippery, so I have to go easy most of the time. Base GT manual trans.

Man every year I'm out there for Comic Con and I come up to LA to see my friend, that traffic just blows my mind. You're lucky to get 13 MPG IMO..lol.

You definitely should be the one end of the GT MPG spectrum TakemyMoney lol.

GT manual, PP, 3.73's and 53 traffic signals to drive through = 15.4 mpg. Maybe I should start taking the freeway but it's only about 26 miles to work and back and nearly half as many intersections.

I know that feeling. Out on the highway, I was seeing it around 25 mpg for the 100 miles of the tank... then I get into NYC and it slowly starts dropping and dropping until by the time I'm at 130 miles it's down to 16 mpg...

In New York city, there are 20 blocks to the mile. There is a traffic light at each block. It's very common for me to get stuck at 5 different red lights in a mile (not counting the greens I go through).

The fun I have in the car is definitely worth it! I wouldn't change a thing even if filling up every week is annoying!

GT, auto, 3.55 gears.

Back and forth to work I'm 50% highway, 50% city, and I'm averaging 21.5 or so. I don't floor it off of every light, but I don't baby it, either.
Not bad. I'm wondering if there is really that much of a difference between 3.15s and 3.55s in the auto GT. That's basically my last decision is 3.15s or 3.55s.

I wish the MT-82 had 2 overdrive gears. 1-4 seem unnecessarily close together with the wide power band of the coyote.

I get roughly 19-20 in mixed driving. Although my City driving isn't near as City as many of you. It's really the stop/go that kills the mileage, and I have little of that. My next tank will be my best yet. I'm on track for 22mpg, and I've not done anything significantly different, so I think it's breaking in nicely.

Yes, I rarely use 7th gear in my C7 on the same commute, but I would use it all the time in my Mustang if it was available.
