'07 EL Eddie Bauer

Drove from Dallas,TX. to Niagra Falls, Canada a couple years back and averaged 17.9 mpg for the entire trip, two weeks combined city and a whole lotta highway. The engine only had 5k on it when we took this trip. Right now around town I'm seeing 15-16 mpg.

Had the tranny flashed at the dealer in '07. No major problems, some noticable wind noise at hiway speeds I wish would go away sometimes. The thing I like about this ride is that after 3-4 hours of driving on the road, when you do stop you're not all cramped up from sitting for that long. A truely comfortable vehicle to drive.

This fall I'll be cruising up through Wisconson, across the UP of Michigan to Gladstone to see my niece get married, then cross the Mackinac Bridge and drive the lakeshore of Lake Michigan back south before the snows come back. If this thread is still active I'll update my mileage numbers when I get back.
