20 on the highway is very possible. my truck just got 17 mpg all in the city. im lovin the 50 degree weather it really keeps the mpgs up. but 32 mpg, there is just no way.

I may have done the math wrong but it came out to 11 litres per 100 km. asked my step dad who is super math genius how to convert to mpg and it came out to 32 mpg. could be wrong i suppose. i know for sure it took 11 litres per 100 km tho

Guess he's not that great of a math genius, turns out its about 21-22 mpg, still not to bad. I guess i wont be asking for anymore math help from him tho:P

I come up with 21.3 mpg which sounds right to me. Thats still very good but you have only went 62 miles if I did my math right and probably need to drive more to get a better average.
