That is awfully low, sounds like it needs some tuning and/or carb work.  My GT6 
gets 22-26 mpg and half my commute is mountain driving.  The GT6 is a 2.0L 
though, but it has 139K miles with the original engine.  It also seems like my 
MPG went up a bit when CA switched to Emission Controlled gas.  Anyone else 
experience this?

Hi folks,

I'm trying to track mileage on my '73 TR6, which I'm using as a daily 
driver, and it seems rather low.  I was wondering what y'all are getting.
 Mine is coming in at a smidgeon over 10 MPG.  That for a 2.5 liter
engine?  I think trucks can do better than that...  :(

Thanks in advance!
