Default Gas milage report

I just got back from a three week trip of 1678 miles all over Northern California in my 06 XK8 Victory Convertible. Speeds ranged form over two hours in LA traffic to over the century mark. The car averaged 25.3 mpg, including a week in Lake Tahoe and a week in Clear Lake with allot of mountain driving.

Its kinda hard to drive aggressively in Redondo Beach but it sure is fun to get the car out in the mountains. What a sweet machine.

On a recent 320 mile trip my '97 XK8 also got 25.3 average with 90% highway and 10% in town.
