given my 35i has averaged 20.5 over almost 3 years, it would be amazing to get a 30% increase in gas mileage, maybe more. 0-60 will go from 5.5 down to 7.8, but that's still not too bad. My old LR2 was 0-60 in 8.2 seconds and we averaged 19 mpg in that. Small/mid size SUVs have come a long way.
My biggest problem is that you can't get sport seats in the 28D right now, and that is a must for us. I would love an M Sport package (prefer the dark headliner, steering wheel...) but would make due with a sport line if they offered it. Otherwise I guess we are getting the 35i again (28i isn't worth the 5% gas savings to me)

Driving it hard and could not get it under 25mpg ? WOW
I need that, and they def have to offer 28d in M-Sport otherwise i'd be dead =\ having to go with Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit Diesel dont want such a big suv yet.
