Well I thought someone might come up with numbers like that. To be more specific, I get 19-20mpg mostly street, lots of traffic, lots of lights in my area. Highway only time I measured I got 23mpg. Mine is stock with cold air, catback, and offroad H. I only have 2 02 sensors also which would effect my air/fuel ratio. There are a number of variables that factor in, tire size, etc. How many miles do you have and what trans? Due to the overwhelming thoughts on this, next oil change, I think I'm going with the 5W-20 to see if there is any significant difference. I doubt there will be, but we'll just have to wait and see.
