maximum was 400miles.. between miramar and key west

it could be better but some roads was 45 mph limit

LOL you're welcome The trip took a little longer, but we saved money by not filling up.

i did a trip from orlando, fl to lithonia, ga on a single tank... not quite sure how.. i guess it had something to do with it being a straight drive.. and a set speed limit..

had a little above the E mark when i got to my destination..

but everyday driving... i get roughly 360 to 400 miles on a single tank

Right when they yellow light came on I got 375, that is a week of city driving and the rest was highway. Averaged 32 mpg, could have easily gotten 400+

350mpt, no A/C, no radio.

I noticed when i blast my radio and subwoofers on, mpg is sacrificed

2005 FM Scion tC, Manual Transmission - I typically get about 330 MPG when doing all Interstate driving, before the fuel light switches on. I'm pretty **** about getting a fillup when that silly light stares me down, so there's no telling how much more I'd get before the car stutters.

I really dotn know how you people are getting these numbers. Mine suck. i am lucky if i get over 300 and i do have somewhat of a heavy foot but even babying it it doesnt seem any more than that. I have a scangauge and it says i have been getting about 22mpg before i deployed. But it may be off somehow. I mean it was saying i was getting like 15mpg while cruising at 65. That just dotn seemk right. But what are some things i could do try and improve gas mileage other than a fule cleaner and air in the tires and driving habits. Or is that all you can do. I mean I have aftermarket wheels which are lighter than stock which should help gas mileage and i have a CAI and catback exhaust.
