How many miles do you get out of a full tank of gas?

[Piker]

I don't mean to beat a dead horse or anything, but I was curious to find out how many miles you guys were getting out of a tank of gas? Could tell me what you normally get out of a tank, and what was the most miles you've gotten out of a full tank? If you have any modifications that would add or detract from your gas mileage, please list them as well.


Thanks!

25 gallon avg fill-up at 12.0 avg mpg = 300 miles per fill-up.

I have a lead foot, and I am getting about a 10mpg average. I have no idea how many miles per tank. I just fill up when the little light goes on.

[DennisAJC]

Never figured it out. I drive backwards.

Average in town and highway driving 12.7 mpg. Strickly highway with cruise set at 65mph I get 15mpg. Checked it twice on a same two hour road trip. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Thanks for the replies guys. I'm really looking for miles per tank, not miles per gallon.

[MAC]

The maximum range on a full tank I saw in my Hummer was 450 miles. Going downhill from 7000 ft elevation, needless to say, that didn't last all the way. Phil is right, your question is wrong.

[Piker]

Phil,

Thanks for the advice. I know how to do the math considering an average MPG. I don't have an H2 yet, but I soon will. In the meantime I wanted to see what all you H2 guys were getting out of a tank under various condition considering differnt drivers and possibly any modifications.

With a mixture of highway and city driving (60/40) I'm getting about 365 miles to a tank of gas. I drive around 75mph to 80mph on the highway.

thanks guys!

11.2mpg over the life of the vehicle, 32 gallon tank, is almost 360 per tank.

I get around 350 miles in the city if I am gentle on the pedal. Most I got was driving to Hilton Head, 460.

Thanks for the replies guys!

I guess gas mileage is a hot topic around here.

[MAC]

No, Piker, gas mileage is NOT a hot topic here, you brought up the subject and everyone is answering your question, or having a conversation on this subject. The subject comes up now and then, but I haven't seen it for quite awhile.

20K, average 10.8 MPG. Lots of hill climbing on very twisty roads every single day, most fun for driving but worst for MPG. Freeway cruising 80MPH whenever possible.

[Dedo-man]

Hey guys.... Ive actually been very happy... getting 12.8 aver per gallon... with a 04' under 1K miles so far....*

[ZeroTolerance]

Well have 400 miles on the new one and I am getting about 18.5mpg... Loving it.... The Diesel that is....

[Piker]

Thanks for all the replies guys.

I really don't care much about the gas mileage, but when I get my rig I plan to drive it a LOT! I make weekly trips between Long Island and Vermont that are 5 hours and 250 miles each way. I just don't want to buy this truck and have to fill it up every two hours on a trip. I'm lazy!

[ZeroTolerance]

Well you will have to fill up about every 250-300 miles on long trips so if you do not want to do that then I suggest you get something else...Diesel maybe....

[Allen]

I have ran my tank down to where I get the low fuel warning light and then keep going for a short while, however, I have never been able to get more than 27 gallanons of gas in the tank...Is it really a 32 gallon tank?

[KenP]

Allen, I have experienced the same phenomenon, no more than 27 gallons. Maybe we should take note of when the light comes on and drive an additional 30 miles or so to see what happens. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_confused.gif

Great idea, we have Never Lost to always help us out...when we run out of gas. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif
