      To the OP, I get very similar MPG in a '10 sedan. 50-60 MPH mileage it goes up quite a bit, temp and traffic impact things a lot, also hills. I get 27.5-32 depending on the above driving around 75 MPH most of the time on cruise and I have a A/T. Usually normal freeway commute with AC is 29MPG. Cool but not cold weather helped MPG by about 2 MPG after the winter. I commute 128 miles 95% freeway everyday. Very consistent MPG regardless.
      A body to G Body to F Body to DSM to Subcompact?

      Thanks Brian! I appreciate that information. It looks like my mileage is consistent than for that speed with A/C and cruise. I will just have to learn to go slower and I will certainly be waiting for it to cool down so I can dump the A/C...
