How do you answer when a stranger asks about MPG?

I think what some people don't realize, we don't give people 'city' mileage, only 'highway' mileage.

I read something recently that garbage trucks get 1 to 2 miles per gallon.

When you think about it, we would too if we were starting and stopping so often. Since we probably don't stop every 100 ft., we would get 3 to 4 miles per gallon with our big heavy motorhomes in city driving.
