The imperial (ie British) gallon is larger than an American one, so if you set your trip computer to Imperial you will get better gas mileage figures.

Which equates to about 22 mpg imperial. I'd suspect that your driving style could not be characterised as sluggish. > "KPW" <wouldntnopsamlike.to.know> wrote in message > news:MPG.158afa255bbe2f84989681nopsam.clear.net.nz... > > On 07 Jun 2001 15:32:53 GMT, > > RHCWilmot (rhcwilmotnopsamcom) > > said: > > > > > > > I am wondering what kind of gas mileage you get with your Saab 9000.
