How many gallons you pumped when you were back from your trip? what was your MPG?

360 mile on a Full tank? I got once 382 miles (26MPG) on a long trip. I read that some got into 400-450 miles range...

What about your MPG mumbers?

I recently took a trip to Philly from NJ on the weekend. About 140 miles or so of highway driving with only a couple of stops for lights on Rt.1. The rest of that tank was a few round trips to work, stop and go hwy driving - rush hour and traffic lights. Went 347 miles and fill up took alomost 13 gal. even - averages 26.7 mpg! Not too bad...want to go on a long trip - all hwy and see what I get.

ugh. Just did a DC trip. Last week i got 392 and am close to a fillup again. I'll post when i get the gas light. More and More i realize that I will want and need to get headers and CAI. If you think about it, with the gas prices parts will end up paying for themselves. Atleast for those who drive alot and don't get on it that often......
