Well, my 95 SHO with a 3.2 swapped V6 and 5 speed averages around 26mpg, mixed city/highway, with several runs up to 7800rpm at WOT per tank (sorry...i'm a racer). My 98 with a 3.4 liter V8 and 4 speed auto with crappy ford transmission tuning averages 22-24mpg, also mixed, driven much the same way.
I'm sure if I steadied my driving out in my 95, 30mph wouldn't be out of the question. My 98, on the other hand, is gonna require some transmission work before I can get more out of it. Thanks to ford's crappy programming, there's a ton of slop to be dialed out of the transmission, not to mention getting the torque convertor to actually lock up.
