579.3 gallons of gasoline
That's how much fuel I pumped into my SVX between August 16, 2005 and August 15, 2006, over the course of driving 12,508.8 miles, for an average of 21.59 MPG.
The best mileage I recorded was 27.03 MPG over a 361.0 mile run. Second best was 26.48 over 471.6 miles. The worst was 17.24 MPG. That was one of four sub-18 instances.
On November 24 and December 1 of last year I recorded 21.83 and 21.89 MPG respectively. That's consistency.
I buy the cheapest gas around; usually Husky, occasionally Mohawk. As to grades, I loaded 40.58 gallons of 92 octane and 538.72 gallons of 94 octane, which by my figuring works-out to a mean of 93.86. Running straight 94 octane in this car costs me no more than regular 87 octane due to the deal I get at this particular gas station every thursday.
For what it's worth...
