Ive gotten as much as 17.5 with mine during city driving. This was with the original 2bbl that wasnt functioning properly. Also, 3spd standard and 3.70 rear gears, 275-60-15 tires.

:-staun

I'm expecting around 15 at best. These things were not economy champs. Methinks I have to mess up my carb. or something. The only way I'd get 17.5 is rolling down a hill with the clutch disengaged.
