MPG question

I have no idea if this should be posted in here but thought it was the best suited.

Anyway i am looking at a 92 firebird for a daily driver and wanting to know what kind of MPG it would get.

Its a base firebird with a 305 and an auto trans.

Figure it would be better then my 98 ford f-150 which gets bout 14 mpg now.

Assuming it is in good shape and proper tune you should see 25 to 30mpg on the highway.
