Pepper Jack provides me with 36 MPG!
I just completed my fist entire tank with no highway driving. My commute is about 20 miles each way, 5 days a week. It is a mixture of county roads, state roads and city streets. No highway at all. Much of the drive is twisties with plenty of hills (and spirited driving ). AC in use much of the time. In general it is considerably less than optimal for best MPG. Yet it got an astounding 36.3 MPG (actual calculation). The OBC read 37.5 for the tank (pretty close). When I purchased the MINI I decided I would be happy with the mixed (city/highway) estimate of 32 MPG. Needless to say I am one very happy camper. I love this car!

I got 48 last tank. That's actual, ~680 miles on the tank of regular (Citgo). I was driving for mileage. It included a 300 mile highway (rolling hills) trip plus commuting on rural roads with several stop lights and signs. The constant highway speed can really add on the mpgs. My goal is 50 mpg and 700 plus miles. It'd take a long flat windless trip, I'd say.
