In the real world what kind of gas mileage are you getting with your KK? Highway? Mixed Highway/city Towing? |

FIRST POST!!!! I have a 2010 Sport with the tow package and all terrain tires (17 inch? I can grab the numbers in the morning). I got it in March. Been getting consistently about 15.5 mpg in city driving (daily 10 mile commute to DC). Just took a trip to Chattanooga, and it averaged 21 mpg on the trip down (avg speed about 75 mph). |

First tank (Chattanooga to Abingdon, VA) was 23.4 mpg. From Abingdon to Harrisburg, VA I used 1/2 a tank and got 24 mpg. I use an iPhone app to record every fill up. |

I have a 2008 Sport, stock w/ a K&N intake. Here in Atlanta i usually get between 15-16 around town. I don't do much interstate driving on a regular basis, but the best i've gotten is around 19-20, but i tend to have a heavy foot. |

Scheduled tour of Cap Tuesday just prior to lunch. While bone stock and new, I was seeing upwards of 22.5 highway and 18 city. With lifte, tires, roof cross bars, air dam removed I get 14/19. Just filled up yesterday and calculated 16.5 combined. Don't even ask when I am loaded with trailer and kayaks

Bone stock with the lower air plastic thing removed I get 17.07 mpg on average that is an average 251.61 miles on a tank of gas. The app I use also tells the average cost per mile and that is $0.19 per mile. This is the app I use it is for android but good https://market.android.com/details?id=com.evancharlton.mileage&feature=search_result |

Highway is generally somewhere in the range of 19-23, depending on weather and such. Combined has been about 15-18, although it can be even lower if I take a lot of short trips. I never have a fill up with no highway driving at all, so not sure what I'm getting in city-only, but probably very bad. Towing my ~3500 lb travel trailer I get from 10.5-11.5 on the highway. That depends heavily on how fast I'm driving - during the break-in period when I was only going 50 mph I got around 13.5, which is a significant difference all things considered. Normally I drive around 60 with the trailer. |
