On Power Tour I was getting about 23mpg! Normally I can get about 220 miles per tank full (approx 12gal fillups).....IF I BEHAVE.

300+ not exactly being easy on the throttle.
Probably could squeeze out 375 if I drove like my grandpa.

I generally fill up between 370-420. I've gone over 500 on a tank.

With the old ramcharger I put on 618 miles before I ran out of gas, lol, 35 gallon tank, 55 mph.

come to think of it i dont think i have ever got under 200 yet...lol

probably due to a lot of 6th gear cruising at 70mph back and forth on the beltline everyday. ive been averaging like 18-22 mpg.

In my old RS I could get about 310 (stock 305) but in my Z I'm lucky to get 250.

My Chrysler can get 340 no problem. Even drivin er hard! :thumbsup

Get roughly 16 mpg back/forth to work, comes out to around 200-240ish.
Was nice taking trip to Michigan, all freeway was 25-26mpg, I think I got 380 or 385 on that tank. Not too bad for a 7.0L IMO.

I got 205 miles on my last tank(~12 gallons), but that included 60 minutes of road america track time. Gotta love the ls1, my buddies mildly modded '05 sti goes through nearly half a tank per 20 minute session at ra :stare
