Seems the 350 was about the "standard" engine in almost all the ones I've seen. But then, I just realized I'm probably thinking of mid to late 70's rather than newer. Maybe the newer ones got better mileage with "newer" engine choices - like the 305. . .
But all through the 70's, seems like mileage in the mid "teens" - or worse - was the best you could expect. But that was before the sloping hoods, the "contoured" headlights & front bumpers that were almost like quasi-air dams, the 4-speed overdrive transmissions, lock-up torque converters, fuel injection, etc, etc, etc....
