Both tanks about 80% city, 20% highway. 87 octane. Its the wife's car.

Unfortunately in the Houston/Harris County area we are EPA mandated to the use of reformulated gasoline; basically means less polluting and less mpg than "regular" gasoline. Same for you Annie being in the greater LA area.

reformulated gas means the extra additives like ethanols?? I'm located in NY and the gas contains 10% ethanols...
