Default Fuel Mileage ??

What is the average fuel mileage you guys are getting with your Avengers. I have a 95 with the 420A and 5 speed tranny.
The odometer reads 265000 km ( 164,667 miles )
Roads traveled are county roads and city streets, No main highways for this guy. My speed on county roads is 100 kph ( 62 miles per hour ) and aprox 60 kph ( 37.28 miles per hour ) on city streets with an average combined fuel mileage of 37.5 miles per gallon.

I'm averaging 30 mpg as long as no nitrous is involved ... NOS fuel economy is under half that ...

Bad Venge : Considering you have a V6 with power mods and maybe the automatic transmission then 30 mpg is not a bad average.
I'm sure if I was 20 - 30 years younger then my average would be more like 25 mpg but since i'm over the 50 mark I can not see raceing from point A to point B with todays gas prices. Also since I bought this car 2 years ago for $500 bucks sight unseen I have kept the oil changed and I keep a close eye on tire pressure. I also use Lucas products in both the oil and fuel, Since i'm a retired transport owner operator with over 3 million miles behind the wheel I know lucas products work.
