Anyone have an idea what XC70s get hwy?

I read when the first came out that it wasn't great, around 24 IIRC. Wondering what it is "real world", not EPA rated.
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!

Greetings....I have a 2008 v70. We live in a rural area and my computer indicates I'm getting 25 mpg. On a recent 1200 mile trip I averaged 27 mpg with a fully loaded vehicle.

Both numbers are higher than EPA numbers published when that model debuted. Good to hear, thank you for the report. A P3 Volvo may be in my distant future. I like them.
