That's what the SG reads when I fill. Don't do a lot of highway driving.

I voted 31-40 mph but it's usually closer to the bottom of that range.

Ditto about highway versus city. I'll cruise at 40-55mph, but on the routine ~120 mile trips (maybe 25/75 city/highway), the average will be near 50mph right on the dot because of accelerating to 70-80mph and coasting on some stretches. If it's a weekday, I'll end up cruising at ~60mph, so the average is proportionally higher.

I don't have a scangauge, but drive in city/stop and go conditions most of the time. I picked 21-30mph.

I probably closer to 30mph.

My commute is mostly interstate where I do 50 to 55mph when I am driving in at 4AM and there is little traffic. On the way home in the evenings when there is a lot more traffic, I'm doing 60 to 65mph.

Lots of Highway

Lots of highway driving -- the average in both cars is in the 30's. The 'Teg does its best at 55-60 with load.
