Oh relax I was just busting your chops. I'll bet if I did mostly city driving I'd get near 13mpg. Mine are five speeds though and probably a little better than automatics. I have never done a stretch of predominantly city driving, so I don't know really. Sounds a bit on the low side to me. I'd be interested to hear what kind of mileage you get on the highway.
