I usually get just about 100 on half tank. Then about 180-190 before I get gas.

my gas gauge deff dosnt read correctly so i just wait till its empty and set the trip odometer and divide the miles by how many gallons i put in (usually 3.4 = $10 @ $2.80~ gal)

i get anywhere from 10 mpg to 20 mpg depending how my cars running and hows its being driven (usually 10....)

Gauge doesn't matter. Divide the miles by the gallons to find out the mpg!!!
