If you see a slow 09 GT-R on...

Will do!

 

what speed are you testing? I usually do about 55mph on hwy.and being easy in city. my tank usually comes out to about 22-24mpg...280-310miles from full to light (about 40 miles left)..this is a stock 07lgt...good luck with your research

 

yea I don't go on 285 unless I'm contemplating suicide...haha...its soothing though going 55/60mph....its how winde?wind? down..hows that spelled??? lol...

 

Thats close to what I was getting on my 02 puttin my foot in it 280 drivin like granma 310+

 

yea def helps...and now that prices are coming down a bit that helps that much more!

 

hahaha...285 is suicide for you? not when me and matt are driving on it.

 

haha yea def not a fan of 285....ima 316/85 type of dude...lol...gwinnett county baby! hahaha

 

ive gotten 29.xx mpg on the way to fl once..

 

I got 27 from valdosta to gwinnett...that was mainly using cruise control. I think you can obtain better mpg using your foot...letting off going downhill..etc...but patience are needed for all that lol

 

lol i find 285 okay but 400 is nuts to me, and i got 16.7 mpg last tank....=/

 

400 is Georgia Autobahn

 

:fawk:


Let us know how she did! I average about 17.5

 

Good stuff! In my '08 I've been getting ~18-19mpg actual around town in S mode trying to drive nice and easy. Best tank has been 22.4mph on the Hwy but I'm sure i was doing 75-80 instead of 60-65.

Keep us up to date!

 

This thread is causing me to ponder why I own a 280 whp sports car with everyone driving a max of 5 over the speed limit, trying to conserve as much gas as possible and the trajedy of Atlanta traffic not to mention cops every square mile...................maybe it is time to revisit the Toyota Tercel 4efte swap

 

i avg 23 in the twin turbo.

 

I average IDGaF normally everyday

 

^We all know that...

I average 17.5.......

 

12.5 but only if the cops are chasing me

 

Nope you're:si: just driving like you are sitting on two testicles, keep up the good work brotha! Otherwise get a smart car and call it a day

 

haha smart car ftw! I'd buy one if there wasn't a 1 year to 1.5 year wait...11k and good crash test rating...70hp though..tad bit weak..lol

 

The smart car is dumb IMO. Same price and mileage as a Honda Fit which is bigger and will last longer. If the Smart car were 11k as said above or got 55 mpg then it would be a good buy.

 

smart car base is 11k up like 20k or so...its a lot more then good mpg...its the whole going green eco friendly part as well..most of the car is recycleabe.....also you can park two in one spot....just the perfect daily if you ask me....especailly with its crash test ratings which I'm sure blow the fits out of the water...

 

the hummer h3 is 85 % recyclable.

 

Maybe in Europe with their tiny city streets and towns but not in America.

 

id rather be in a fit when a jeep smashes in to me.

 

I can tell you being in an xb vs a f150 is not fun....haha k ending my thread jack now

 

Lucky to get 19mpg... 3300 rpms on 400 every day kills me. I did get 27mpg on a high speed burn to Michigan on my last trip to see the 'rents...

 

anyone else check their mpg every tank? ive noticed mine has dropped 2-3 mpg in the last month or so and stayed consistent since. I was averaging ~24 mpg for months and months and now im averaging right around ~22 mpg. Driving habits havent changed. Daily routine hasnt changed. Im thinking more ethanol is in the gas lately?

 

^^^Mine hasn't changed.. what brand do you use?

 

i don't really have a single one i use, what do you use sonic?

 

I'm avg about 22 on this tank....i use 93 from qt....

 

DUDE qt pumps just got 91 octane stickers on them!!!!!

 

Ya-mean where the 93 is supposed to be? Hmmmmm not right

 

i'm lost..?? Got about 300 miles just until the light came on...woo! and it's been five days since i've filled up instead of 3 or 4!

 

I try to use the SS recommended Shell/Chevron... but in a crunch I'll use QT and BP... Haven't really noticed a MPG difference in any of them..

 

i average between 19-21 around town. Alot better then 15-16 my sti got heh.

 

pissed me off! i saw the stickers there i remember them being 93=(!

prem is only 3.94 at the QT near my work too

 

holy crap dude...26.1 in sport sharp???? that is the most inefficent one correct??? you have intelligent, sport and sport sharp? I'm sure its set up just like the lgt...if so...geezus that's amazing..lol

 

w t f.

you got a GTR?

How much was that?

whenever i hear stuff like that i just makes me want to sell the 3 and get a GTR =/

 

Calling B.S., untill we see pics!

 

+2 for BS until proven otherwise

 

Well when I can say that: "I just traded in my Bugeye for a GT-R" hell will be very chilly.

 

pics of gtr!

and i got 22 mpg on this tank. at 3.88/gallon no less! pretty good for around town in my car.
