Well, I couldn't say since I never let my tank run dry, but I DO calculate my mileage every fill-up. Since my Stang isn't my DD and since I use it mostly for long distance highway driving, I average about 23 MPG including "whomping" on it each trip for a few, hard 70-100+ MPH sprints. My CAI and tune arrives tomorrow so I'll be "whomping" a bit more this weekend, though.

well im stock and i do just about 90% city driving and 10% highway and i can get about 270 miles out of my tank with the low fuel light on and it says i got 50 miles to go, thats with a few sprints getting on the freeway in the morning. But when i went to canada it was getting 27-28mpg and getting well over 350+ miles to the tank, we didnt let it go all the way down so probably 400 easy on the highway.

Well, I never calculated how many miles I get on a full tank.

But ... I average 13 mpg if I'm lucky! So you do the math!
I guess it should be somewhere under 200 miles! So you're lucky! Have fun and forget about the gas

I just had my best ave. yet, I drove 3/4's of the tank highway and the other 1/4 city with nothing but ripping on it. I got 255 miles and when i filled up it was 14.1 gallons= 18 mpg. I figure it is 3.5 gallons for each quarter of a tank on the guage. I usually get 14-15 in town, and 24-25 highway.
