Default For the first time EVER, I got more than 250 miles out of a tank of fuel!

A tank of fuel usually gets me 200-220 miles for my weekly commute. I had the fuel light come on last night at 257 miles. By the time I got gas this morning, I had gone 267 miles.

When the car was new, I would get 180-200 miles out of a tank. Same drive, same driving style!

At this rate, I should be getting Honda Insight MPG in about 4 years! ;p

Default At least I do better on one metric than you do...I frequently get 300 miles,

now that I'm driving about 120 freeway miles per tank.

I'd probably trade to get the extra track speed though.
