Default LS1 A4 Highway gas mileage poll

This is for those of you who are not modded with cams, boost, or torque converters.

maybe we should also say how hard we drive.

mine got 80 miles a day round trip for 3 years put on it, and I usually averaged about 22-23 mpg on the highway about 75-77 mph. When my wife and I drove to California in November 2003, we got 25-27, but I'm pretty sure the computer put it into a fuel saving mode of some sort, because the car is usually very consistent at the track and it keep getting faster by 2-3 hundredths each run (richening up the mix I'm assuming).

No, there just aren't many cars that aren't modified I would have voted, but you said, "This is for those of you who are not modded with cams, boost, or torque converters". So, there goes my chance to vote You might also want to specify if they should vote on highway mileage or city. I am pretty sure that I was getting close to 30 on the highway when my car was stock.... but that was so long ago, I could be wrong.
