the Saturn on the DC to Pittsburgh run averages about 34mpg...due to the mountains and stretches of 2 lane roads....the jersey Turnpike has all those toll boths but its flat and your speed is fairly steady. THats the only long run I see those sort of numbers on milage...its close to 25mpg in heavily city/stop and go driving about 80% city and 20% highway...
Yeah that '75 caprice would get closer to 15 mpg on the highway....
I know the 1972 caprice my folks had years ago got about 14 on the highway....and the 1970 Hornet Wagon I had back in 1980 232 3-on the tree only got about 18 mpg (and it had only 34K miles then)
