I have a loaded 2006 Sienna LTD FWD and I tried to beat my previous record of 26.6 MPG in highway... and indeed a couple of days ago I did hit the 30.0 MPG in the digital display and I was thrilled. I usually get 18-20MPG in the city. As an FYI, I put 100% fully synthetic Mobil 1 Super Syn oil and I know that helps a lot...
