Agreed...was reading just before putting the kids to sleep and haven't updated in a while. Although before one calls BS one "should" have all the information, eh? :-). Short fills are accurate to get the highway portion that I was mentioning...the city only usually yields around 15 mpg in my experience around Charlotte either light or heavy footed.
My gas log on my phone shows 17.2 mpg city / highway over the last six months / 5500 miles tracked. That includes a lot of non commute local driving and getting mulch, lumber, rock, etc while hauling the wife and 4 kids instead of just myself on the highway with cruise control.
BTW: this is without turbos...just the old Vin W 4.6 auto with 233k on the clock.
