We get about 24mpg in the winter, about 26mpg this fall, in mostly mixed driving (1/3 crawling, 2/3 highway at about 70-75 mph) Have about 7000 miles.

getting about 240 as well

i get about 220-240, and thats 50 highway/50 city, but i think being stuck in traffic for an hour consumes a lot of gas. What do you all think? Those of you who are getting above 20 mpg i widh i had your milege, i drove once on I95 to check highway milege and all i got was 18 mpg. Maybe theres something wrong with the car.

Not a GLE, but still have an auto

I just took a long road trip and only got 22.8. Brought the car up to 398 miles and had 1.1 gallons left. That is not very good. This summer I got 28 on one trip. Lately in city driving I have been getting 17-19 MPG.

yeh mileage is something you dont get really in the maxima, unless you are going like 75-80 all the way. I had the car for a year now, still same mileage, using premium 93 octane from the beginning.

I average about 20-22 both city/highway, the manufacture estimates are not real world.
