The Gas mileage is acceptable on my trip.

I only put $10.00 a week on my 2008 Lancer with 41,000 miles since I bought it last year. I know it is only 2 years with high mileage.

on city it should be around25 estimatedper gallon and highways should be around 28 to 30 mpg.

my $10.00 tank last for 5 days depending on my driving habits. I drive fast on highways average 65 to 80 mph. sometimes last for 4 days.

it is not a bad gas mileage for a fast car. GTS should be a little heavier because of the wing and 18 inch wheel mine is 16.

please buy the manual if automatic you have recalculate the gas mileage i think might be lower numbers than manuals.

I recommend the 650 watts car stereo and NAV system is not really an option. Wh? I hate seeing big white screen with red dash board it is a pain to look at and the destruction is horrible. You tend to look at it once in awhile without any apparent reason.

i own a 2008 lancer gts with the cvt. (automatic) I have only had it for two weeks i bought it used it has aftermarket 20 inch rims and i live in texas so it doesnt get too cold here. (although lately there have been 30's days). i drive tops 70 and am very conservative with my spped to try to get the best out of mileage. i watch my gas mileage closely and have come up with 26 hwy 23 city. not too good however keep in mind with the stock rims u should see slightly better numbers.

on the contrary i traded my 08 new lancer for a 08 new outlander. the difference in gas mileage is not all that different. the outlan der is really responsive to your driving when it comes to consupmtion. so take a look at that. its only a few dollars more a week to drive the outlander when it comes to fuel cost.

difference in number? i dont know what you mean.
money at the gas tank depends on the price which changes all the time.
the difference between the two vehicles? one is a car one is a SUV
my favorite is the outlander because i like having a SUV with 4wd

Ihavea 4B11 on 2008 Lancer you have V6 so it might be lower numbers on your car. Probably 19 to 22 on city and highways 25 to 28 per galloon.

Depending on your driving.

Rodrigues you have a 20 inch rims does it affect the performance of your car.

20 inch rims isway too big for the Lancer
