Those sound like realistic expectations, but there's not a lot of data on the 2010's yet. 4cyl or V6, I'd expect 19-21 mixed and 22-24 steady highway travel. (avg out of a full tank, not avg per dash readout) These are not, nor are they intended to be fuel efficient vehicles. They're large, tall and high off the ground. That said, I love my 2008 GLS AWD 2.7L. I average 19.5mpg tank/tank in the winter and 21.5mpg warmer months. This is nearly all highway driving. You definitely pay up with fuel costs to be off the ground with a larger, safer, more versatile vehicle. You'll love a SF if that's what you're in the market for.
