Rakapur, I'm just wondering.....why do you capitalize every word in a sentence? Makes it kinda hard to read. But if that's your style, have at it. And hey, if you're getting 17 mpg with all city driving, you're doing great. Thanks for sharing your gas mileage info. And if you don't mind a VERY friendly suggestion, lay off the CAPS on every word. Just my thoughts...and I'm just one person out here reading.

i put it on caps lock and for some reason it just did it to the first letter or every word, i dont know if that happens to you guys, maybe its cause im using an macbook
im so happy with the mileage im getting the car only has 300 or 400 miles on it and if this is what im getting right now i cant wait to see what happens once the engine breaks in at 600 miles

The forum software has an override when typing in all caps. It capitalizes the first letter of every word. This is a fairly recent development as I remember Sully used to type in all caps and it was posted that way.

What about the 2009 Models are they going to be better?

I'm just inching up on 4,000 miles on my '08 RTL, and I've never gotten less than 20.3 on the highway. Even with a full load of gear and running the A/C at 70 mph. (My highest mpg was 25.5) The new EPA standards are geared to more "real world driving", and are based on the fact that most people are pretty lead-footed. If you drive sanely, you'll usually get 1-3 mpg better than the EPA ratings. If you drive like most people, you'll get mostly what the EPA says you'll get....or lower.
