Drove 507.4 miles using 15.612 gallons = 32.5 MPG. My commute is 56 miles each way and is 95% highway. My info screen said 34.9 MPG and average speed of 52 MPH. I maintain about 65-70 MPH depending on speed limit. Going to try for 550 miles with summer blend gas.

Nice!

I've gotten that mileage before, but I don't know the tank and gauge well enough to go deep like that yet. Maybe after another ten tanks or so.

When I fill up when the empty tank warning light comes on, i could only fill about 14 gallons. Do you fill up much time after the warning light came on to get >15 gallons in your tank?

What is the average mph you have displayed on your digital dash?

Is this a passenger-less and luggage-less commute?

Great milleage!

I drove about 50 miles after the warning light came on. There is about 2-2.5 gallons remaining when the light comes on.

Average mph on dash was 52 mph.

No passengers and no luggage.

2 to 2.5 gallons left after warning light? That's good to know. I start freaking out and worry when the car will shut off when the light comes on.

Impressive. Best I've done was 445 miles on 15.5 gallons. I usually fill up when the needle is splitting the back line of the "E" mark on the tank. About 40-60 miles after low fuel light comes on.
