Driving like a jackass(and not a grandma), I get 23-25 mpg in my 300 SDL.
Not going to happen in a 300D... Sorry to disappoint you. Your in for a surprise if that is what you think.

I drive that speed a lot because of my location. Not many stops and hardly any idling, the most I have ever seen is 28.5 corrected.

The SDL is a "completely different car". You are comparing Apples to Oranges.
