Re: ej22 syncro camper fuel economy
I get similar figures on the highway as I do around town. On the highway I cruise at around 60mph if not a tad faster. I'd like to have a taller 3rd and 4th but have my doubts the syncro will be able

16.8 mpg at what speed? I get 21 mpg in my syncro westy, 2.5L '03 Subaru .... if I go 55 mph. Faster than that and my gas consumption goes up pretty quick. I do have a taller 3rd and 4th gears and 29"
