'99 S70 T-5 35 mpg S70

posted by  someone claiming to be MOTOHED on  Sun Jun 1 06:22 CST 2008 [RELATED]

Just a note here.This weekend I took a trip to northern Wisconsin and decided to check my gas mileage.The trip one way was about 340 miles.On the way up I got 33 mpg all highway and on the way back I got 35 mpg.No air conditioning ran as it was cool outside.I did everything right as far as I can tell as topping off the gas tank etc.I was rather surprised at my findings.Anybody else get the same highway mileage? I been toying around with the idea of a new S60 T-5 and with the better engine management system I wonder if the highway mileage would be even better considering the S60 is more aerodynamic than the S70?
Any thoughts/input would be appreciated.
