Miles per gallon on a '05 TL
We're getting on average 20 miles per gallon in the'05 TL for an 80 mile daily round trip journey. These are 99%freeways miles and she drives between 70-80 mph
I have done a couple of experiments where I top it up to the brim with gas, she does a round trip to work and back and then I fill it up again.
Do I have a problem? I normally take the suggested EPA quoted values with a grain of salt, but about 50% off is a bit too much. Any sugestions would be appreciated.
Thanks Sujit

50% off? Are you saying you are supposed to get 40mph? Is your car fully broken in? Is your car the Aspec? Manual? Auto? Alot of stop and go traffic? How many miles are on your car?
