but the 6 isnt always known for great mileage, alot of people tend to get different results with their 6.

I have the 03M6s...3.0...V6 so maybe that's why. Why is it the premium gas gives you more???

premium shouldn't get you more mileage.

I have an '05 2.3 6s 4-speed, 22k miles on it. I get 29 mph in the city; haven't taken it out for long periods on the highway yet (just had it a few weeks), but I expect it will be around 32 mph.

I'm pretty happy with my mileage.

'06 Mazda6i 4cyl 5spd

I use all the tach in town, and highway is 80-90mph with the radar detector on.

I get 30-32 mpg tank after tank, on the cheapest 87 octane that I can find. I keep very close track of my mileage

18k miles so far on the odo in 7 months.
