very interesting. I am only getting 20-22 MPG with My '93 ATX, and only me in
it at 70 mph. Based on Jeremy's comment, perhaps I need to load it up with
more people??????????
If other ATX's are gettign higher MPG, could my CATS be backed up, without
throwing any codes?????

  On my recent trip to Lansing I averaged 27mpg with ~650lbs of people and
  equipment, and an O2 sensor that throws a code every now and again.  (I'm
  sure they're both in need of replacement).  I ran premium and didn't use
the
  A/C (it's broke - bah!).  Average speed was about 75mph.

  Went to look at the "rare green" '95 ATX I mentioned earlier in the week.
  Owner seems to be an ideal seller - never drove the car hard and hasn't
  scrimped on fixing things when they brake. He showed me his receipts and I
  just about laughed - fuel pump, alternator, rear alignment bushings, brake
  booster (didn't need, actually), cruise control. Typical Taurus failures.
  But it's pretty darned nice, has the '96 upgraded brakes with Carbotech
  pads, rear window tint, JBL but no CD player. H-rated tires in good shape.
  Two questions -
  1.  what sort of gas mileage do the ATX's get on the highway at 70-75 mph?
  2.  what options exist for typing in a a CD changer/player to the JBL
  system?
  Thanks,
      Alan
