Before I get flamed, my DD is a 46,000 Kilometre Nissan Sentra GXE and I have a 50L tank and have NEVER travelled more than 500kms on a tank. You guy's are getting 500 "MILES" per tank? How so?

I'm only averaging 20 right now in my car.
I wonder if somethings not right since I did the head work...and thats not beating on it too much.

I am a private investigator and spend most of my time driving. Today i had to take my stang on survaillence because my usual car had been seen too many times. This rarely happens, but is a mild inconvience. Well today i did 10 hours of survaillence

If you spend most of your time driving, that must mean it's like a rolling surveillance.
When you write reports for your client and tell them youdid 10 hours of surveillance,you might want to spell surveillance correctly.[sm=Flahssssss.gif] I won't even mention inconvenience

Well this is just a fun little fact. I am a private investigator and spend most of my time driving. Today i had to take my stang on survaillence because my usual car had been seen too many times. This rarely happens, but is a mild inconvience. Well today i did 10 hours of survaillence and well over 300 miles on a single tank of gas roughly (340-360). With 4.10 gears no less. Just wanted to see what people thought about this.

But you need to resize your sig pic to fit the rules. 500x250

get your foot out of it a little bit more. its EXTREMELY difficult for me to get 300 to a tank(my fault not the cars) i have to go 60 on the highway, and pull away from light like a turtle.

on my old motor w/ 4.10's I took a trip to florida and got 24mpg, with the new motor I can get 22.86mpg on the interstate w/ 4.10's. City driving sucks for me though.
