For what it's worth I routinely get 29-31mpg in my 2005 Impreza RS2.5
wagon on long freeway drives with the cruise set to around 73. The car
is usually loaded enough that I can feel it pretty well when
accelerating from a stop and the figures don't seem to change if I
have the A/C on.

For my daily commute grind, it's more like 24mpg.

That's pretty much the secret to getting good gas mileage -- set the cruise. However, getting 29mpg @ 70mph is pretty impressive. I figured you needed to be down around 60mph to get that kind of mileage. Yousuf Khan

Hello all,

I recently got rid of my second Subaru. After 10 years of owning Subies:
'93 Legacy L, '02 Impreza 2.5 TS and '02 Outback, putting well over 300
miles on them (with my wife) I have to report I am done with them for at
least a while.

I had an opportunity to get '00 MB E320T 4Matic in very good condition,
low millage at good price I could not to not pass on. It is different
car, but MPG wise - on 89 octane fuel , 25 highway range and average
speed 55MPH I got 29.5 MPG - I figure I could never archive on neither
on my Subies.

Anyways I will enjoy MB and Subaru will have to come up with something
real convincing.

Best regards, Andy
