I only put in about 10 gallons per gas station trip and get about 200-220 miles on that. Comes out to 20-21 mpg with mostly highway driving.

I average 15-16 mpg, driving 70% highway and 30% city. This is disastrous, even for a RWD 6 cylinder in this class. It's a 2005 G35 WITH 50K.

i tried to drive really efficiently-try not to gas or brake too much. i only save about 20-40 miles per tank. that's like 2 gallon worth of gas. but the commute time has been dramatically increase from a 20mins (driving 80-90 mpg) to about 40-45 mins(driving 65-70) so my conclusion was the gas i save is not worth the time i spend on commuting. however, i drive about 90% hwy. if it's for more city drive, the result might be different. now i don't really think about the gas mileage that much.

No mods with the exception of running 235/55/17 tires.
!! What the hell is your secret!?

I get anywhere from 300-340 till the gas light is on. I usually average around 17mpg witha 60h/40c split.

^Sure, why not? We have one every two months and everyone posts the same thing...

It's like a tradition or something
