Mileage Per Tank
What are all of you getting per fill up. I'm only getting about 230miles to the tank and Im pretty sure I should be getting better mileage.

I get between 400 and 450 KM per tank, 100% city driving in rush hour. So...*does math* between 250 and 275 miles. I haven't done a highway cruise with the SVX yet, but I expect mileage to be significantly better on lone trips (go 3.54 gears
 ).Oh, and I have two bum O2 sensors right now, which doesn't help mileage any

i usually dont go past the 1/4 tank mark... though on a few occasions ive hit 380 then.... the light comes on then fades in and out a little bit... i bet itd go dry before 400 though i check my milage every tank
i tend to average 24.5 mpg in the summer about 21-22 on winter tires (driving habits tend to change in winter as well)

I could get 27mpg on the highway/a few miles in town. So, I'll say around 28 or 29mpg highway.
Around town though with teenage driving (some jackrabbit starts), it's usually around 20mpg.

Mine get around 21 mpg overall (say 380 miles per tank), and the majority of my driving is short trips that hardly give the torque converter a chance to lock. On the freeway, fully warmed, with the cruise set a tick over prevailing traffic speeds, it's 27+. dcb

This should blow all your minds... On a trip back from Reno, with my Dad, I got 530+ miles on 1 tank@ 17something gallons. That's over 31 MPG!!! From just outside Reno, NV to Goldendale, WA.
My mileage would have been BETTER but I decided to take her up to 135 for a few miles in the looooong, flat deserted area of I 395... The miles seem to go by real quick at that rate

I usaually average around 23 per gallon mix driving. Highway is about 26 and town is around 19. The most I did is around 370 on a full tank with red light on and have about 1 to 2 gallons left in the car.
Considered the weight, auto and all-wheel drive, that's better that half of the average cars today. Peace, sid
