City= 18-19
HWY= with cruise set at 75 I will get 24-25.

I just added the EVO Intake and FABSPEED mufflers so I will have to re-calibrate.

25-26 is a good average for me.

One days driving is shown below ...not too bad, no construction zones

I have a 2005 C2 with 4,000 miles on it that gets 21 -22 in town and 28-30 on the highway (cruising at 75). I don't abuse it, but don't baby it either. Maybe the C2S gets less mileage.
