I get between 9 and 10 mpg, depending on the track.

 

Yes 35! Back in 2008 there was a huge discussion about breaking 300 miles on a tank. There were many people who had and continue to do it often. I raised the question about breaking 400 miles in a tank. The consensus was that it could not be done. I decided to donate a tank of fuel to the cause. I planned to route to incorporate some scenery. I visited Mt. St. Helens. I drove a total of 404 miles on 11.511 gallons of Premium for 35.0968 mpg.

For some reason Stella gets good mpg. The trip to Home Coming we drove 2705 miles and I averaged 28.88 mpg. That included Nevada, let's just say we moved our average mph up 2.8 mph on day 4 of the trip.

My Cross country drive was 3488 miles and averaged 29.06 mpg. This was with the Hard Top on.

 

I've seen as high as 33mpg with old lowfat. I know it will go over 300 miles on a tank, but I doubt seriously it would do 400.

 

My buddy (another S owner) calls Stella a freak.

 

haha freaky stella!

 

We run 10% corn juice here in most of Ohio. I'm told pure gasoline will yield more miles/gallon. As will slowing down. But I'm not ready to go that far! 300 miles per tank should not even be a question!

Same for me, otherwise, I usually get around 24 mpg when cruising. Don't think I've ever gotten into the high twenties.

 

Since June, I've gotten 27.9 MPG with my '00 AP1. 93 octane always, shifting around 3k, about 1000 of those miles were highway. I try to stay at 70mph with cruise control on. (Top always down, of course.)

 

In my best James Earl Jones voice.........."IMPRESSIVE!"

Though shifting at 3K? I swear that's where my car idles and 70 on the highway top down I don't think I could hope to get even 25MPG.

 

Since the end of April Stella has consumed miles at a rate of 29.4 smiles per gallon.

My Lexus shows a huge difference in mpg from summer blend to winter blend fuel. I see about a 12% decrease in mpg when winter fuel hits the stations.
