Well.... I've got a 2000 9-5 Aero. I drive in SIlicon Valley, so it's definitley stop and go traffic. For City, I get 22-24 mpg. Highway, I got 28-30 mpg. I'm a pretty aggressive driver, and I get pretty decent mileage. RonM wrote: > I've had my 9-5 wagon for a few months now and I am getting terrible gas > mileage around town.
