I have 342 miles on my GL so far and it's at 24.6 MPG after four small fills. I've been filling more frequently just to see how the car is performing. I drive in a hilly suburban area with some stop and go. The temps have been in the 40's and 50's mainly so far. When I've had to do more city driving I got about 23 on one small fill up and I've gotten about 26 on another one that had less stopping. I generally do not go into the city that much, so if I can end up getting about 25-27 overall I'll feel pretty good considering the price vs. the Mariner/Escape or other Hybrid SUV's. My old car got about 18MPG, so If I increase my MPG by 8MPG with a very resonably priced car that's pretty good in my book. Jon
