My city MPG average is currently between 35 - 37 MPG. I only drive 7 miles one way to work, coast when I can, have memorized the timing of the lights, and hardly EVER use my brakes with more pressure than it takes to crack an egg ... err... an ostrich egg.

My mileage sucks so badly because I am driving an automatic.

On the highway, I have seen over 54 MPG at a steady 55-60 MPH

According to my SuperMID, I loose between 2.5 to as much as 4 MPG when stopping at a light. ( On the instant average readout )

I was just asking the question about braking out of couriousity. Thanks for the feedback.
