I've put 3300 miles on my Crestline since purchase. I have tracked every fill-up and my overall average is 15.3 miles per gallon. My odometer is GPS-verified to be accurate, so I believe this is real and honest fuel economy. The past several tanks have all been almost exclusively highway miles (commuting to work around 65-70 MPH). With overdrive, my tach is reading a little under 2500 rpm at this speed. Economy on these tanks has been 15-16 MPG. Worst tank I have ever recorded was 13.93, best 19.24 (once--thinking may not have filled the tank as full as usual).
Does this sound about right?
