[net.auto] LeBaron mileage

chim@ncsu.UUCP (Bill Chimiak) (07/20/85)

        What kind of mileage are the  LeBaron  owners  out  there
getting?   The  reason I ask is someone has a LeBaron and is only
getting about 20-23 mpg and that is with cruise control.  The car
is new so it can be taken in and adjusted under warranty.

	Thanks in advance.

More info please, is 20-23 combined city/highway or what?  Does your
LeBaron have the turbo or is it normally aspirated.  My Daytona which
has the same power train with the turbo gets a reliable 21 mpg for about
1/3 highway 2/3 city driving.  The worst I have gotten is around 19
the best about 30.
