The car just has arounf 3,000 + miles, so far, getting 18 - 19 in town, and have done 26 mpg on the highway, no long trips yet. see full Lincoln MKS review

Hmmm...here is the soft under belly of the car. Although my (better off) friends chuckle at my complaint, I have always driven cars that gave me better mpg. But, the size and the luxury seem to wash this issue away. see full Lincoln MKS review

Low teens in town, and 24mpg tops on the highway make this a less than ideal economy car. see full Pontiac G8 review

The most MPGs I ever had was 25 and that was all highway driving at about 70. see full Pontiac G8 review

Not bad mileage figures given the size of the car and the beast of an engine, but this is not a car for the hybrid set. see full Pontiac G8 review
