Default Gas Milege?

Hey guys, I've been checking my gas milege and I've been averaging about 235-245 milesper tank of gas. I've been using 87 and driving regularly. Does this sound right??

Depends a lot on driving conditions and the number of mods you have (especially gears). I'm guessing you don't run the tank dry before filling up so I'd estimate that you're getting around 17-17.5 mpg. That's probably normal for a lot of city stop-and-go driving, but a bit low if you drive a lot of highway miles.

I drive a lot of highway miles and get around 19.5 mpg or 270 miles perfill-up with the supercharger.

I get around 200 or so a tank, but 99% of my driving is in-town.

I have a 98 Cobra and I average about 22 MPG all highway, i wish I could get 25 MPG. I just did a recent tune up so the MPG should jump a bit
