Haha im in your boat

 

The Evo never has been very "slippy" according to aerodynamics. The faster you go, the worse it gets, really quickly, regardless of cruise gear.

 

Big turbo, awd, relatively heavy car = bad mpg.

 

You can get one for under 80k these days. Not bad, and I heard the maintenance isn't as bad as you'd think.

 

Very noticeable if you start driving a bit fast. ~75-85 seems to get me pretty good mpg on the highway but when I've taken long trips in the 90-100mph range the mpg gets a little śhitty.

 

im getting 22-23 doing 60 with cruise on and 20-21 at 75 with cruise, all stock minus a drop in filter

 

**** im stuck at 50 a week feeding this beast and i live close to work.

 

My friend's is stuck around 20mpg which isn't too bad.

 

My best mileage was just under 24mpg during a 850+ mile trip up the west coast, in the mountains and having fun (not driving like a granny), with speeds consistently between 45-55 mph, bone stock evox 2010 even before its first service. Im sure I will never get those numbers in as much a fun drive anywhere else...

 

yeah, my EVO X sucks on gas. I'm lucky if I get 17mpg. the last time I was tracking it my average was around 15 or below. It was too depressing to see, so I just stopped keeping track. you know your gas mileage is bad when you can actually watch the gas gauge go down while you drive.

 

Mine is bad and I just paid almost $5/gal. At least I can drive it in normal auto mode but it's so boring. This small tank is a little annoying too.

 

I get 22 MPG back and forth to work. On the highway, I get 27.5 at 70 on cruise control. Put in the economy tune with the Cobb AP and I am now getting 26 daily driving and 36 highway at 70MPH. No modifications; yet.

 

The other day I paid $64 full tank, I know I do not get anything over 20mpg.

 

What.... The.... F*$@...

 

36 highway, you are kidding right?
