Guys, how many miles do you get to the tank??? Also how much to fill it up??

Looking to buy a TL, but just wanted some info!
Thanks!

 

Search!!!!

This has been posted SO many times.

 

I did but I wanted to know more current MPG!

 

Well, here ya go! I have 3200 miles on my TL, and since new, have averaged just under 26 mpg. My worst tankfull was 21.5 mpg and my best was 29.4 mpg. On trips, I can easily get 450 miles out of a tank and around town from 320 to 350 miles. Gas prices here in the northwest are $2.15 / gallon for premium. The tank will nominally hold 17 gallons. You can do the math. Cheers!

 

A current survey could be useful. There are more TL's now on the road and finally a few with a fair number of miles. When the number of the cars in the survey are mostly new the bias will be toward a lower number as the cars aren't broken in yet.

My TL has less than 1k miles and I am averaging 23-24 mpg mostly city with 1 tank highway. Worst tank was 21 best was almost 30. My MID has been dead nuts on with my hand calculated mileage. It's so close as to be scary. If I had more significant digits it would probably get it to the tenth. So for if my MID says 23 I have gotten 23.x and not 22.x. So far I am pleased with the mileage and it should only go up later when I am not running with winter gas, cold weather and the car finally broken in.

 

Awsome fellas!!

 

wtf im only gettin 10-13 and i dont drive that rough but im in staten island.. shudl ti be that bad

 

well, i hav worse mpg than some..... we our tl mostly in town, bout 2 miles per day (on 2)lol and on our computer, it showed that we hav averaged bout 18-20 mpg . we hav bout 3400 miles and the tl is bout 3/4 of a yr old..... my/our best is i think a 26 mpg after 2 hours of driving on a highway.... srry if this is negitive but its great compared to our suburban's 10 mpg in the city

200~500 per tank... I should cut this thread...

 

Mine is one month old with 800 miles. I've averaged 15mpg (only city driving). Do others think this will improve as the car breaks in?

If you folks are not getting at least 20 there is something seriously wrong with your car or your driving habits. My 02 TL averages 25 in our Alaskan winters around town and it isnt babied and has studded tires on all four wheels which seriously cut down its rolling resistance. On the flip side I have never gotten less than 18 in my 2001 6 speed Vet around town either.

 

Last check was 28.25, but about 110 miles of that was on Virginia country roads, 2 and 4 lane (our roads are very good here in Virginia).

In the colder months, I average around 24.5 to 25 MPG and in the warmer months, around 27+ MPG.

Permium at the station I generally use (BP-Amoco) is $1.91.9 per gallon.

 

Averaging 24 mpg overall after 1200 miles (didn't reset computer) - includes some longer trios and around town type driving. 12,500 miles on the TL now.

 

24mpg with 3,600 mi. on '04 auto. my mileage steadily improved from an initial 21mpg.

 

11,290 mostly highway miles and over 5K since MPG was reset:

Avg MPG: 29
Avg MPH: 49
Dist: 5845
Time: 124:57

 

13,500 miles....i usually get around 260-280 on a full tank...my commute to work is 1 mile (not even lol) so majority of it is from city driving...very little from highway...i fill up 91 octane at exxon...$2.15 per gallon...costs me about $30 for a full tank...i have an 04 automatic that is a little over one years old...

 

I never run the tank down on the car but it gets great gas mileage unless I screw around too much.

 

It seems like i'm getting 14-18 city, and 26-30 highway. I have around 580 miles on the car.

Snowwolfe, I'm sure that city driving in Alaska is quite different than it is in say... Los Angeles.

 

My worst tank has been 24, my best have been two trips at 31 (these were both 600 mile trips). I typically get 24 - 26. This includes a fair amount of freeway driving, but every morning and night I get into some stop and go driving going into downtown Houston from where I live.

Oh, and to all of you people who insist on "doing a search". If you don't want to see another thread on a subject, don't open it, and don't respond. Pretty simple, huh?

 

I def get the worst MPG i think... only because my driving habits have totally changed...

I get about 17mpg or so.. Highest was 30 at one point but that was ALL HIGHWAY with cruise.

I drive like anywhere else.

I Agree. I got the similar MPG as PG2G has had, in where I'm, New York City. But, once my TL hits the highway, I enjoy the superior MPGs.










This is a good call. Yet we do allow members venting whatever they'd like to say, as long as it's not rambling, outrageous or rude.

Sometimes, REPOST ain't good for members.

 

my car is less than 5 days old and i'm getting about 18mpg. and i'm driving like a grandma. i was expecting to see in the high 20s. hopefully it'll get better once the car is broken in....

 

Not uncommon for city only driving. You might get it up to 17-18 after break in, but in this case (and I don't know why) when the car gets to between 4000-5000 miles is when you see the slight milage increase. City MPG is one of the few things that dismay me about this car.

21 with a mix of highway and city....30 if all hwy.

 

Also, for any noobs in the audience, don't forget to reset your Trip Computer before you get all worked up about mileage ... (go to the trip computer and hold enter until all indicators reset) It can make a big difference!!

 

25-26mpg consistently, every time I fill up. I have 22,000 miles on it. This is a 60-40 mix of highway and city driving. auto trans.

 

I get about 19-22 mpg. about 300 miles to that tank / and fill up @ $2.39 + everytime! about $34-39 for about 15.5-16.5 gallons.

I hate LA gas prices!!!!!!!!!!!

 

there seems to be very high range in the mileage that most of us get. 12-28 ? are people coasting in neutral sometimes?

i get around 19. My Avg MPH is also around 19. Strange huh?

 

Really? How does that affect the way it calculates the mileage?
