[s-cars] Fuel Economy

[Peter Schulz]

Mike:

Nice to see you here...
My spouse and I moved from a pair of 1991 200q20v Avants to a pair of S6 Avants

On a recent road 2300 mile road trip from MA to Atlanta - Alabama and back my 175k mile Avant (MTM 1+ chip) averaged 23.5 mpg fully loaded (2 adults, 2 boys, luggage, thule box on roof) - brand new Conti DWS on UrS4 16 Fuchs for those interested.
Ironically thats probably better than I typically see in my regular mixed driving.

> I've been lurking for a bit while I shop for an S6 - This is likely a silly question, but what does a urS6 typically see for hwy fuel economy? I've been driving 91 200q's the last 15 years (close to 300k miles) and getting about 25 hiway at 80mph. I'm looking to "upgrade' to a 95 S6 and am just curious if it will come close.
