Killer Gas Mileage in V6!

Haven't posted in awhile, but thought you should know that high gas mileage from the V6 is attainable, with ease. I loaded my 9-5 up with 4 people and a loaded trunk and set off to Telluride, CO (7 hours from Denver). Went through the mountains, over the divide, and into Telluride. I pulled into the condo and the SID was reading 30.1 MPG for 390 miles of mountain driving at average speed of 56 MPH. The passing power was damn good even when climbing at 11,000 ft. with all the cargo and people I had. Even after owning this car a year and a half I find new things to love about it.
