If you're getting 180-220/tank, you're either heavily modded or shifting at 12,000RPM

How can I be down? I just refilled my tank for the second time 2 days ago. I've driven about 120 miles and already I'm just above half tank
How do you guys do it? I cannot resist hearing the exhaust go. I've even tried driving like grandpa but I can't for too long.
Its torture haha

Every time I fill up the pump stops at 15 gallons. With stock wheels I consistently get the fuel light at just between 300 and 310 miles. With my wider/heavier HREs I get the fuel light right around 280 miles. My driving consists of probably 75% city and 25% highway. So I'm averaging between about 18 and 21 mpg.
Worst i have gotten is 16.7 .... and the best is 22.5 .... when i drive all highway it actually goes down .... since i like to run my car up to 90 mph on the highway...
And please dont tell me i should not be driving that fast... i am just coasting on the higway which has a speed limit of 75 so i am only going 15 over...

best i got was about 27mpg, thats at 75-80 constant with about 5 or so 4th&5th gear redlines. was a long trip hah.
I've been doing a lot more highway driving lately, so I'm probably 80% highway 20% city. My last tank, I did the calculation myself and came up with about 400 miles for 16.5 gallons. Damn good as far as I'm concerned, especially I cruise aroud 80mph.
first post ever... woohoo... anyways, I'm getting anywhere between 350 to low 400's to the tank. Anytime I do a lot of freeway driving I get into the 400's. I have an 06 A/T with roughly 18k miles on it ... oh and its bone stock.
well i saw this thread before i bought the car and everyone scared me ahead of time. i filled up yesterday, full tank for the first time and we'll see how bad it is. i've been shifting at 2500 rpms and cruise around 65-70 on the highway.
:fingers crossed:
