Default Average Gas mileage

What's your average gas mileage? Been tracking(observing) mine a bit on my 2009c4s and I'm consistently at mid 15's....I guess I drive it harder than I think ....

I get ~17mpg in my 2010 4S Cab MT, and I drive it like I stole it. I get slightly better in my 2012 Cayenne S, and actually clocked in at 20.3mpg this morning on my 25 mile highway commute. Not bad for a 4.8l V8

This is my cumulative mileage since buying my 997.2 from the original owner

I am somewhat a hyper-miler, but this shows what you can do if you don't redline it on long trips.

Here are just a few data points and trend lines from my fuel workbook since ownership.
My MPG has trended down since I've been doing more track days.

my computer says 18.x mpg avg over 3000 miles. About 90% of that is in town.

Sell your 911 to me, it sucks on gas but I'll take the hit.

I don't know exactly what my mpg is, but I usually only get around 220ish miles per tank on my 09 4s.

I thought I pushed my car pretty hard but I guess not, compared to you guys. I get 18mpg plus or minus on average. If it's all city (it's 20 miles round trip to work and back) I'll drop as low as 17. If it's all highway, I am in the high twenties. Best I have gotten on a trip of any distance is 31, where I was forced to stay at a pretty steady 65 mph for a couple hours with no opportunities to pass or open it up.
