if you think taking the spare out of the trunk is going to make any difference in fuel mileage you are sadly mistaken. That small spare only weighs about 25lbs and you will be very sad if you get a flat on a dark road some night and don't have it.

next time you go to fill up:
Miles Driven/ how many gallons it took to fill up to full = MPG
Simple as that

I have a 05 6MT.. I do the same as above.

…or approximately 489 miles per 20 gal tank.

Best MPG I've achieved has been 27 mpg even.

Use your brain to do the math, its more satisfying.

Dude how slow are you driving! if you have a g coupe that exhaust and engine say push it! I tried testing how much i average and gave up after a few red lights or any lil civic who tried to ride my bumper.

I noticed a huge difference when in driving 75 - 85 MPH and 65 MPH. When I drove between 75-85 MPH for about 70 miles, i went through a quarter tank of gas. But when I drove that same distance going 60 - 65 MPH it only went down one little notch on our gauges. No lie, but the drive was hella boring!!!!!!
