Can anyone tell me what gas mileage a toyoto avalon gets?

Sounds like bad news, a seized engine.
Did the auto shop forget to put oil in? Check your oil level first.
Another cause could be a broken oil pump. But whatever, it sounds real expensive, I'm afraid.

After how many miles should i change the timing belts on my 1999 Honda Accord?

Do you trust the shop that you had the work done at?
Seems strange that the problem happened just after they worked on it. Open the oil fill cap and see if it looks like brown cheesy goo on the bottom of the cap. Could be that the intake manifold leaked coolant into the oil. If that's the case it's expensive.
