i just got over 310 going to South Padre last weekend. but i was trying to save gas so i followed a big rig a lot of the way and ran it 30 miles with no bars on my gas gage ( i had a gas can in the back) normally though i get roughly 200 with my style driving.

No matter how high the gas gauge is, when it hits 250 miles the light goes on and the "needle" dives to empty. Average is 24-25, once in awhile 26-27 on highway trips. Once or twice the odo hit 300 but I was nervous. I have about a 12 mile highway commute each way, with not much traffic so thought mileage would be higher, but still not bummed about being in the mid 20's as it is.

I'm at two bars right now. Gas light on. 255 Miles. I usually get 265-270.
I try to avoid running too low on gas. There is sediment (from the pump tanks, etc) that gets into your gas tank and if you run too low/out it could potentially clog things up.

Well, calculating about 12gal a fill up (This is average for me), I get about 24-25mpg daily driving. This is mixed, I have gotten as much as 28mpg on a road trip and as little as 21 mpg on the same trip, but on the dragon at the time. 
Sooooooo, Min: 252, Max: 336, Avg: 294.
I do not baby my car, I bought it to drive and I VTEC every time I drive it long enough. EVERY drive to and from work it sees 9k. I'm going to start keeping a log, cause my numbers seem really high.

how in the hell do you guys get such kickass mileage?
City: 220ish
Hwy: 250ish
i drive pretty conservative, and these figures are when the gas light just comes on.
usually takes about 10.3 gallons to fill tank up.
