Ughhh, that's a loaded question.

I'd say if you get 15 or above, that's good. 18 or above is excellent.
10 or less -- don't worry, you're not alone.

I had gotten that much several times on flat terrain with a 351W. 17+ as a top mpg is more common lately, mostly because of hilly terrain and congested roads.

Ok, what about the question of hp & torque then? I'm curious too.

In terms of consumption I get a fairly constant 14mpg(UK) = 16.8 mpg(US) on 95/98 Octane gas 5L EB E40D '92 which ain't too bad.

Do a search in this forum and you will find the torque, not sure about HP.

for the people claiming 18 or 20mpg what size tires are you running with the stock gears because your mileage will be miscalculated for the larger then stock tire size.
