I dunno...my Mom's '04 Sienna could never really see much above low 20s, but caveat! It was all wheel drive, was an all-around basket case, and although I hadn't stumbled upon hypermiling per se, I did have my Dad's proto-hypermiling instruction, a calm driving style that suited something like a Sienna and which I generally practiced when I borrowed it.
