Welcome to 2CarPros.

That doesn't sound bad. Honestly, I would think that would be about average for this type of vehicle while running the AC. Does the engine seem to be running properly?

Welcome back:

Honestly, 14 is possible, but it is all based on driving conditions, how the vehicle is loaded, driven, hills, stop and go traffic and so on.
