Man, I've done that before. I know for sure that one 340 miles tank was not an illusion. But, now with the lift and new tires, I will be happy with 250 a tank.

350...good
250...OUCH
J, is that straight highway miles, or day to day driving?
- you have to know what it is to know what it is -
I drive from souther Indiana to Louisville Kentucky everyday. The commute there is about 45 minutes the commute home is about an hour and 15. Highway miles to bumper traffic near the bridge that crosses the Ohio River.
Great point is I am lifted and running bigger meat (265-75-16)
i drove to Thousand Oaks knowing i could make it on what my gas gauge told me....
and then i prayed i could make it back to Ventura.... i drove the whole way back bumper to bumper, sweating, because my light came on multiple times. but i pushed through and made it to the gas station i fill up at...
weird thing is... it filled up with just under 20 gallonsso if i had stayed on the free way i coulda made it to Santa Barbara.... that woulda been 350 on the trip-o-meter...
got happy so i posted![]()

I'm not sure I get it, I'm about as stock as can be except recently for performance muffler and green air filter. I'm not lifted, don't have oversized tires, anything. Fluids have been changed, I feel I drive smart and most of the mileage is highway. I've gotten to 300 maybe twice since I've owned it and I consider 270 good and average for me. What gives? How are you guys getting over 300 and some up to mid-300? My mileage ranges 16-17, occassionally 18 but that's it. Yea, I've got higher mileage than most (92k) but would that come into play? I'm stumped and a little aggravated to boot! Especially as gas gets more costly....
