I get about 350mpt on average in my car with mostly city driving with about 5 gallons remaining in the tank. I avg about 21-22 miles city driving and haven't dared to run the car bone dry of all 20 gallons. Would be bad for the fuel pump.

Damn people... the most I've had is 442 and I was riding that gas light for a while. 80-90mph for most of the trip and 78mph for the last 50 miles till I filled up. I filled up with 19.43 gallons lol

I do about 50% city 50% highway driving and I get 20-22 MPG depending on how I drive... I thought that kinda sucked, but after reading about otehr people not even getting to 300 miles per tank I am damn happy.

Still getting 420 mile per tank here.

Manual/Automatic transmission along with how the driver drives the car plays major role in MPG.

The most I ever did was 350 mpt with 3 gallons left in it (I was able to put in only 17 gl after that)
So I think if I try hard enough I can get 420 mpt........but I'll be driving of fumes.

I always put in 17 gallons(cause when im on E thats how much it takes to get ti to full), i get like 400-410 on those 17 gallons. I dont drive like a granny, but i always shift at 2k unless i need to get on it. I also skip 5th when shifting cause of how close it is (in gearing) to sixth.

Interesting. I get about 310 max that's about 70city/30hwy w an average of 19.5-21 mpg. That's w the occasional over-rev and I only have a plenum spacer and stillen intake. The ONLY time I've EVER gotten over 400 was ALL HWY driving from SF area to New Mexico. I was averaging 28 mpg.
