gas mileage

Its the fact that I let it warm up before leaving work, my drive to work is 2.5 miles and its never fully warmed up. I'll hit 195-200 coolant temps about 3/4 of the way there and then just shut it down once I reach work. And if I go to the bank or grocery store, those too are less than 3 miles away and its just slow city driving. I never reach speeds over 50 mph going anywhere in town.

Ah that's where you and I differ. I let my car warm up just enough to get oil flowing lol. I wait a minimum 1 minute if it's below freezing, and a min 30 seconds if above.
 




I'm getting about 22 this winter with warming it up for at least 5 min every morning and every afternoon.
 


I'm watching mine lately and have generally been around 24 highway, 22 rural / city driving. I'm also sick of the cold weather with the first day of winter coming tomorrow. I have a 2001 GTP coupe with 132,000mi.

I have a 2000 gtp and with running 93 OCT I average around 17.5 with my normal driving (50/50 city and highway) and when I drive with a light foot I average around 23-26 and about 350 per tank according to my DIC but I rarely let it got below half tank so I couldn't tell you if that part is true
