So this tank of gas I'm working on now is working out great. I'm at like 320 miles and I've still got about 3/8 tank left (according to the gauge). Normally at 320 miles, the low fuel light is on and the needle is in the E.

Good thing I guess since gas is pretty damn expensive right now.

your driving route change, gas station, other changes? is your gas guage broken?

Nice, I presume you didn't have much of a lead foot on those 320 miles!
When my fuel tank is maxed out, with gasoline dripping out of the gas cap, I can manage to push 400-420 miles with one tank. I filled my little Acura with a little over 15 gallons of gasoline, despite its tank being rated for 13.2 gal.

With my Geo Metro, I was averaging nearly 500 miles a tank. And that little sucker would only take ten bucks to refill. (10gals x 99c/gal of regular octane back then).

I killed a half tank in less than 2 days this weekend.... and the sad thing is i didn't even drive that much, only 160 miles on that half tank. IR lead foot.

Had a meet with the SRT club yesterday. I used 1/2 a tank driving to Boulder canyon and back. 20MPG FTL.

Jack (MS3_Mafia) saw you guys. He said it was quite the big group of SRT's.

I do have alot of highway miles on this tank- trip to Fort Collins and back. But usually my car at interstate speeds gets in the low 20s for mileage. I have been taking it fairly easy on the throttle.

Yeah...I saw him up there. Tried to get him to stop. I think he was videotaping when we drove past. Want to see if he'll come off that footage...I'd like to see it.

From jack never. He needed a 3hr. presentation to learn how to press the record button and another 1hr to stop recording.

Yeah I've got the footage on DVD. We were at Boulder Falls when I was filming you guys. I had to hand over my little daughter real quick to start filming. I told my Fiance that I wanted to follow you guys to Nederland but we had other things to do. Lol

Very nice mileage! We made about a 60-mile round trip this weekend and I managed to eek out almost 21 MPG I think. Since most of it was city driving, that's pretty dang good! I just shift at 3000 RPM and only use the boost when I need it.

Does anyone else use the MPG calculator on the MS3? And if so, has anyone tested out the accuracy of it? Mine shows around 27.0-27.2 MPG.

I wish I could get mileage like that lol.... that's awesome Tom! I usually only get around 270-280 miles per tank before the gas light comes on, which usually equates to around 20-22mpg or so.

Hey dommo_g, where do you guys set up meets? Do you guys have a local forum or something?

I had 230 miles (250 Hwy) on my last tank... before the 1/2 mark. Then I went back to puttin' around.

After switching back to my summer tires my gas mialage went form 19 to 22 and now my average is about 24-25 and if I did not have such a lead foot I could probably get even better than that but I love the feel of boost too much
