How's everyones Gas Mileage?

I was just wondering how much does everyone get per tank..
I get anyware from 190-200 per tank... which i think sucks, plus i got a 2.5 TL so i thought the gas mileage was better, oh well at least I dont have an SUV.

I get between 300-400 on my 2001 MDX (19.2 gallon gas tank) and I consider it somewhat of an SUV? Even my 2000 3.2 TL gets at least 300 miles per tank.

Talking

The farthest ive gone on a single tank was in the 330ish, but that was sinking the needle below "E" and Im sure that isnt good for my baby(TL). I usually fill her up around 285.

'97 3.2 TL. I'm averaging about 340-350 miles per tank, but they are a lot of highway miles.

I have a '97 3.2TL. I avgerage 18-21 mpg in mixed driving. Anywhere from 260-300+ per tank. It doesn't help with the SoCal traffic or driving 80+ on the freeway.

with me it all depends. I can get high 200 or low 400. It depends on how heavy my foot is. I think average for me is about 300 +.

Offhand, if your spark plugs are old, you may want to change those out. Also, a decent fuel system cleaner may help increase your mileage some. I'm not talking about the cheapo stuff at Walmart, but rather something like BG 44K which I've heard good reviews on.

Hope that helps,
Slagboy.

I get about 300-320 miles per tank. I noticed the biggest gains after a tune up, new spark plugs, and oil changes.
