No, but it is pretty much all highway. I drive my car to school on the Tpike everyday I avg. 80-90MPH with some occasional wakeup fun

My car has always gotten good gas mileage....

StephenTi is infamous around these parts

~12mpg on the Turbo... but then again, I seem to get that mpg no matter what I drive with the exception of my motorcycle... SL500: ~12mpg... Xterra SE Supercharged: ~12mpg...
