Default Statistical Study of Fuel Economy- Please contribute

This was something I thought would be interesting to study with a full stats analysis. Please post your average MPG (for those of you who keep track of it as I do) and if you have forced induction, please note that with an "FI" with your MPG.

I'm aware this has been done before, but I need fresh sample data, thanks!
-Duncan

I'll start

26.9 MPG

This is not really a meaningful statistic since driving conditions make such a huge difference. The S2000 gets about 7 - 9 mpg on the track, 16 - 18 with a hot foot in city traffic, 20 - 24 with freeway driving, 29 on the highway, and is capable of about 35 with easy distance driving. An average tells us what?

It varies, I get about 24-26 if I'm easy on the throttle, shifting around 3-4 k but regular driving bout 21-23 if driving normally, shifting at 5-6 k with alot of vtec-ing throughout the drive. If its purely freeway driving with long distance around 29 mpg.
