Those fuel mileage numbers are EPA numbers. Real world numbers are actually higher. Most of our Maxima (any year, really, but specifically 2003 & newer) customers DREAM of 28mpg. Especially with an automatic. We hear 26mpg on the highway as high numbers. My old 1987 Olds Delta 88 did better than that. By a fair bit. There are SOME modified supercharged GM 3800 V6 engines out there STILL getting 30+mpg, while making more power. Since those are in the minority, I'll stick with the stock piece where cruising at 67-70mph still nets 31mpg or so on the highway. I've had friends with these cars, so I know the numbers are real
