(For my american friends, that's roughly 31.32 miles per gallon)

I find it somewhat amusing that I got much better gas mileage in the mountains than I did on the prairies. Of course, even the lowest mileage I got was pretty good.

Those gas mileage calculations are typical of what we usual got when driving the Elantra cross country. Unless we had a good tailwind and then we exceeded 40 mpg! However things average out and your mileage is very respectable.
