A 350Z is becoming an appealing option again.

175 for a fill up?!?!?! damnnnn you should look into a hybrid or a bike

Well, for the world to be a better place everyone should look into a hybrid or a bike.

my tank's empty.. i'm afraid of what it'll be when i fill it after work.

the last month or so i've been filling up only about $30 each time. i really hope the weight reduction [less gas in the tank] is helping to squeeze out a few more miles.

You'll have to hand calculate the mileage in order to draw any conclusions.

sometimes the gas gauge will flucuate bakc and forth a little. Reset your mileage meter and see what that tells you. Hope it gets better :-(
