and what is your gas mileage like?

recently i moved to a place that is about 10 mins from work so now i take the highway a lot which makes my gas mileage better as it's not a lot of stop n go traffic just constant driving at a constant speed. last week i hit the mile mark for my mileage where i got 347.3 miles on a more than full tank. (usually when i get gas, once it clicks to stop, i keep filling it up til i see gas start to come up, i usually get an extra $3-4). before i moved i would only get like 210-220mi on a full tank so i was just wondering what your guys mileage is like? i always get premium 93 octane. i try to always get it from shell or mobil. with that 347.3 i think my MPG was like 24/25.

With city driving we usually get around 350 or so. The most we've gotten is almost 500 I think, I remember I posted it on the old gen7 right after we got back from our trip to Myrtle but can't remember exactly what it was.

I do a lot of mixed driving but for the most part I get between 330 to 360 on a tank. I usually fill up right when the light comes on as well. So my mpg is about 28. Then again, I'm rocking a K24 vs. a J30 like you Rich.

I usually average about 300-350 miles before my low fuel light comes on doing 90% city driving.  I have been able to get 400-500 miles before my low fuel light comes on if I do all highway and hypermile.  I got about 430 miles this past weekend driving to upstate NY and back.  For anyone that knows what the Orange County area is like, then you know it has some big ass hills and very few flat parts.

Well considering I fill up at half a tank (last half was ~225) I will guess I get at least 350, if not 400.

I thought it was a bad idea to fill up past the part where the pump clicks. I've been getting roughly 258 to 268 miles on a full tank 100% city driving on my I4. On 100% highway driving, I get about 400 to 420 miles on a full tank.

On highway trips I get 34mpg. I once drove from Cincinnati to Atlanta on 1 tank of gas. Normally I get about 300-350 in the city.
