Generally 32 mpg, combined average speed of 29 MPh,
I hate the little computer i feel like a slave - staring at the mpg, trying to get it higher, driving slower and slower - how boring!!

I'm on about 1/3rd remaining on the gauge, done 480 miles so far. Depends how far I'm willing to take it to the bottom, as I don't have an uber futuristic computer on mine. I do a fair amount of static running and have cr@ppy traffic on the way to and from work.
