It hard to say since a number of factors can come into play such as tire pressure, traffic, stop lights, road conditions, and even the fuel filter. I just got my fuel filter changed and tire pressure adjusted and I saw a difference of ~2 mpg which averages to about 32 miles a tank I was not getting before.

I do lots of highway driving, here's one of my better mpg runs.



Best I've gotten 478 MTE.

Depending on your area, factors like Winter tires, fuel changes, temperature, tire inflation, traffic, all can make dramatic changes in mileage.

For me, these are the mileage killers:


But I couldn't drive without them!!

Thanks! Now that I think about, it would only take about a 1 mile per gallon difference to explain what I'm seeing.

Say, those look like Blizzaks! I have those on my car right now. Great snow tires, especially with about 100# of sand in the trunk.

Lol I average 230-250 a tank I dont have IUP I calculated it myself so its pretty accurate.

I don't have the message center on my car but I always reset the tip odometer at every fill up. I get between 315 to 335 miles by the time the gas light comes on.

Make sure, too, that you are filling all the way up! Mine did that a couple times and I relized my tank wasn't full (the fuel shut off before it was full). Don't sweat it, just figure your real mpg's at eash fillup and know how far you can go. It's a rough estimate by the computer anyway.

Really? I dont think ive gone over 260ish.
