I've driven about 340 miles in one tankful; from Jacksonville, FL to Leesburg, FL and back to Jacksonville. Varying degrees of acceleration - no cruise control. I had to go through several small towns, like Citra, Stark, Ocala, Lady Lake, The Villages, etc.. and cops were running speed traps in most of them.

I used to drive from Akron, OH to NYC once a month...usually got there before I got a light and I think it was about 450ish miles.

I've driven about 150 miles when the car was on E and had the (-----) flashing. Still only filled up at 18 gallons.

Pretty consistent with filling up at about 350 miles for mixed city/freeway. Usually put in about 16 gallons.

How many of the people posting in this thread have faulty fuel sending units or cut-offs? When you fill it all the way up does it register past 3/4 or 7/8 full? I have a feeling some of the people who have never gone more than 350 miles on a tank have broken cars...

just streched to 360 before dte with mixed city and highway. if you upshift at 2500 and dont drive above 70 it really makes a difference. next step is to drive past dte 0

Ditto. If I were concerned about gas mileage, I'd have bought something less... well, less.
But the 'puter on the car says I get about 21.5 with an average of 45 mph.
