Is this right?

36-38 is where you should be on the highway.
I hit 42mpg on several occasions before, but if you get the least little bit of traffic it will kill that pretty quick.
I can't remember anyone getting higher than 45-47mpg but it's probably possible. But at that point, you're going out of your way for the mileage, so IMO that's not the "true" mileage the car's capable of.
When I've hit 42mpg I've never been making a huge effort to squeeze that kind of mileage out of it, just driving like I normally would.

ALL of my cars have gotten higher than the EPA rating. I think it has to do with what they consider to be an average city/highway cycle.
