My 1995 Grand Am GT with the 3100 V/6 gets 29.2 mpg @ 65 mph(with the cruise set)on my Route 18 trip to Ocean everyday. My son gets 32 mpg with his 2001 NEON on his trip to Tinton Falls on the Parkway @ 65 mph, and my last trip to ATCO Pontiac Fall Nationals I got 24mpg @ 65 mph with the 1991 Formula. What I cant understand is that with the HUGE PRICE increases almost everyday for gasoline, is why if I'am doing 65 on the Parkway or Route 18, I still get passed like I'am standing still. Does anyone out there give a rats a s s about what it costs for fuel, and how much LESS gas mileage you get by going 10 to 20 miles more over the speed limit costs you!

people aren't letting gas prices affect their daily routine.. that's like saying by working closer to home with the same pay you could save a ton of money each year.

btw you can say ass.

therein lies the issue. Add a bit of 45-50 mph cruising and it goes way up, dont even need highway.
