[GT 5spd]

Hey guys This is my first post i was woundering what a 96-98 GT's gas mileage is?

I'm getting about 16MPG...but it's all city/suburb driving.. stop signs... traffic lights...traffic. Mine's an auto too.. CAI, exhaust.. will all improve your MPG.

 

[5spd GT]

First off I want to welcome both of ya'll to the board...

I got about 20 mpg with more city driving than highway driving in my 2000 GT...and on the interstate I got about 25 or so...

Usually about 20 mpg when I keep my foot out of it. Mostly hwy/interstate and 4.10 gears.

Thanks guys........anybody else????

Same as what they said, 20-25 if you dont get on it too much.

I get approx. 19 in mostly around town driving and pure highway, I get above 24 mpg. That is getting on it now and then. I have a 98GT with a 5sp.

 

[97StangGT]

I usually get about 300 miles to the tank.

I got over 350 miles on a tank 2 weeks ago with head wind and with only me on board. I did keep cruise control on most of the trip, however.

I mainly do city driving and I get between 21 to 23. On the hwy I usually can get about 25 to 28 depending on weather and traffic. I have 98 GT 5 spd 3.27 gears with Bassani o/r x-pipe and catback along with a MAC CAI ( w/ the Darkwolf Mod ). Hopefully this helps you out.

I'm jealous, my MPG is about 12.5. ,3.08 and Cai.with new xpipe. Runs great no codes. One problem is the converter locks up simultaneous at the 2-3 shift and 3-4 shift. I just got the car so I'm still researching my poor mpg. Thought about cam chains but i get a 20" vac at idle.
