like 22-24 in town, like 28 hwy, thats a pretty beefy plant, but if your thinkin about gettin one you should rethink, that car has way to much class for you.... i see you more in a chevy love with a leaky big block, and if its date night maybe a chevette with a small block

THose town cars were awesome, but when you stuck your foot in them they got like 12mpg. I drove one to chicago, and then to D.C. and then back to TX once. It got pretty good mileage until about 75. Then it was terrible.
