I get about 260 miles per tank, thats 50/50 highway and city driving.. what i dont understand is the fuel light comes on when I have only used 12.5-13 gallons..anyone know why this is? I know there is a reserve but 2.7 gallons seems like a pretty big reserve!
Click to expand...

I was just thinking the same thing the other day when i filled up. It only took 13.5 some when it clicked off. What is the rest of the 2 gal doing?

I get between 250 and 270 depending on how heavy my foot is. That is a lot better that the 180 i was getting in the begining but then again the first set of tires only lasted 20000 and they REALLY needed to be replaced before that!

Mixed driving will get me about 18.5MPG, say 270-280 miles per tank. A tank with a majority of highway driving will do about 20.5 to 21MPG, a little over 300 miles per tank. Pretty good IMO, especially considering it's hard for me to keep my foot out of it.

I drove 1100 miles over the weekend and managed to get 28mpg. That's at 75mph with a K&N and SLP LoudMouth. Before the filter and exhaust I got 30mpg...
