I don't get it, why do I get around 200-220 per tank? what could be causing that? Yeah I do drive hard, does that really justify the loss of a 100 miles per tank? I'm gonna change my air filter tomorrow and see what that will do 4 me.

If you fill up when my light goes on it's about 16 to 16.5 gallons. If he gets 220 out of 16 gallons it's 13.75mpg, which isn't unheard of. When I first got my car I had trouble getting more than 15mpg.

Buy an old clunker like a Tercel, Sentra, Corolla, Civic, etc. as your DD. It'll pay for itself in no time.

Use to get bout 280 maybe close to 300

Now I started watching my driving and last two tanks were 380 (170 were freeway miles. Prolly would have gotten more out of that tank if I would not have raced 350z) and 330 (mostly city)
