Tom,

My 8V92 got 5.5 mpg driving 65 towing a Yukon
My s 60 gets 7.5 mpg driving 65 towing a Pilot

Those are averages over flat, hilly, mountains, etc.

I like the s 60 much better; runs cooler in the mountains and doesn't throw oil like the 8V92. But the 8V92 had a sweet sound at idle!

Like everything else there are pluses and minuses.
