Gas Mileage
What kind of gas mileage do you guys get? I am getting about 200-240 miles per tankful of gas? Is this about average?

Personally, I'm getting about 18mpg around town and 25+ travelling (@75-85mph). I fill up at about 220mi when in town, but she only takes 11-12 gallons. Damned gas guage takes a nosedive at about 110 mi, and is unreliable after that, so I just keep her full.

I'm pulling an average of 17.33mpg over the last ten tanks.
High of 19.6 in early October, low of 15.1 early this February. I use 90 grade fuel with octane booster additive.

I go about 160-180 miles in the city per full tank. It's by far the worst gas mileage of any car I have ever owned. I think I had it figured that the best tank I ever ran got me 14-15mpg

I usually get 425-450 MPG (highway miles) when the gas gauge lights up. About 16 gallons to fill up. I average around 25-27 MPG.

I usually get 20 to 22 mpg driving in city and highway. On the highway, I will get up to 27 or 28 mpg.
