i get 200 miles to the tank in my 05 5AT..the G just guzzles in city driving...You are lucky sir

 

yes.. my gas mileage sucks too, I get maybe 250-290 at most per tank.

it's still better than my car before but it's not a econo box.

6 Speed.

 

**** I thought mine had a problem. I get about the same Miles per tank.. 06 with 6spd. It has a lot to do with the way of driving also.

350-400!!
I am lucky to get 280 if I drive like grandma...

 

I get 240-280 with around town and occasional freeway. When freeway only then its around 70mph 400-420. That's at a messly 70-75mph.

 

i get a constant 360miles and the light comes on..... but I do alot of highway

 

Last Road trip at 80 MPH highway I got 475 miles for 19 gallons... around the city I am getting bout 390 miles for 18.5 gallons. I shift bout 3500 and get it every now and then

 

I get 19.2 MPG (that .2 makes a big difference ), but I get around 350-400 also!

 

on average I get around 360-380 with mostly city driving.
My last trip to knoxville and back(to columbus ohio) I nailed 400 and 420 before the light came on. That means roughly when i filled up at home (14.5 gallons) that equals 27.5 mpg.
I recently read an article in Car and driver where the editor went into detail about how acceleration AND deceleration both effect MPG. about how fast and how slow you do both will ultimately effect gas milage.
Here's how I drive daily.
take off and up shifts- normal traffic- shift around 2-2.5k on low throttle.
Passing - one down shift and gradually acceclerate
stopping- remain in 5th or 6th until engine slows to about 1krpm- using my brake as the main means of slowing!
this change has increase my MPG from around 20-21 to 24-27 on most driving.
Of course, as I near the end of the tank, I flogg it down the backroads to the gas stations for grins...
Mind how you acceclerate and decelerate and see what happens...

 

knoxville?! Good Ol I40 - the crappiest interstate in the country according to National Geographic haha....i see that thing every morning on the way to work

 

Wow you guys are filling up at 18.5 gallons? That's like below the E line. I'm getting about 300mpg and filling up at 15.5 gal

 

i've gotten on a full tank around 400 if you go on the highway and city driving about 320.

 

I get 20-21 and I floor it all the time.

 

oh boy, another gas whiner! "oh oh, fully loaded" yet cant afford gas. sheesh.
