Default What do you get for fuel mileage?

Just curious what everyone's getting for fuel mileage. When i got my x-type it got almost 26 mpg on the highway and over 20 for mixed city/highway driving. I am just recently got under 24 mpg for an all highway trip and am averaging between 18 and 20 around town. I'm thinking it could be because of the cold weather here in Vermont. What kind of mileage are others getting in the x-type?

I get 23-24 mpg with mixed street/hiwy use. If I am strickly hiwy I have gotten almost 30 mpg and that is crusing at 70 mph or more back and forth to Ct.

I average around 21 MPG, a lot of city driving but 1/3 highway as well. Depends a lot on the type, I drive in rush hour with an average speed of <30 KMPH.

3.0 Estate with an automatic.

Mine gets around 17 MPG, but I live and work in the Tyson's Corner area near Washington DC. It's worse than city driving!

Helps if everyone says if they have 3.0 or 2.5 and auto or standard transmission.
I have 3.0L auto and am getting 20 mpg right now with about 50/50 mixed driving. The city driving though is a lot of short trips. 100% highway i see about 25-26 driving average of 70mph.
