Trending Topics
HOLY CRAP!!!! im nowhere near that!!! in the summer, I was getting on the highway around 450kilometers!
now that im going to school, lots of really slow traffic my tank was getting like 300ish! I might need a hard core tune up!

I average just under 25 miles a gallon, which equates to about 360 miles per tank.
On long highway trips I've gotten just under 400 miles a tank. And on those I probably would've gotten over 400 if I had run the tank dry, but I'm not down with running out of gas
BTW, I've got a '97 2.5 with 125k.

Heavy aftermarket wheels will suck gas and so will underinflated tires.

Sh*t....I get about 250 at the most. Its probably because of my 17 inch rims. Does autostart have anything to do with it? What can I do to help with the gas milege. Someone suggested a fuel injection.
Wow I play around alot but i only get like 230 to a full topped off tank! Even when i'm calm and drive slow I get like 250. why is mine so bad?I got Aluminum 15's and 30lbs tire pressure. Thats all perfect why is my 1996 3.2TL doing so bad?
