This is my first thread on this forum. I picked up my Mazda6 on Dec. 9, 2002. Yes, 2002. It has every option that Mazda offered for 2003. It is my wife's car. She loves it. It handles better than any car she has previously owned. I can't believe how quiet this car is. We usually take my car on trips. I HAD a 2000 Chrysler LHS. It got 27-28 mpg on trips. Not bad for that size of car. This summer I sold the LHS so we took the Mazda6 with the 220 HP V6 automatic trans on our trip. The BEST mileage I got while averaging around 70 mph was 25.8. Usually it was around 25.2. That was with the cruise control set at around 70. What kind of mileage does every one get with this car. I am VERY disappointed with the mileage. Any ideas??

That's about what we get out of our 04 6 Sportwagon.....That's actually pretty average for a 6-cyl in a ~3800 lb car.
