Mine is close to 21 k miles. Tires still OK for the time being, but geting thin. Milage in the same ballpark, 28.8 on my last trip, admittedly, from Calgary to Seattle, Vancouver and back, mostly mountains, especially since I went through the Cascade Park. Incidentally, wonderful power when going uphill and passing the whole crowd in their SUVs in one fell swoop, before they even figure it out :-).
