With the auto, my 4 banger 88s got 17-19 around town and 23-24 on the highway/freeway.

The 87 and 88 5.0 5 speeds got 18-21 and 26-28. On average, I got about 2mpg better with the 5.0.

The 94+ 3.8L V-6 will be lucky to see 20mpg in town or 25 on the road. The 3.8L V-6 is a pretty poor engine when it comes to economy.
