In 7,000 miles I have only checked my gas mileage once.
On a 100 mile stretch of flat-road in South Dakota with the cruise set at 71 mph, top up, air-conditioning on, the car averaged 32 mpg.
As for miles per tankfull, I'd only be quessing but somewhere about 250.

Man, I know I'm gonna get some grief for this, but here goes.
This is probably a LOT more than you wanted to know.

Weird that this question just came up. For the first time, I wanted to see how many miles I can pull out of a tank of gas. Started last week. 90% city miles. I am currently at 310 miles, with two bars left, third just went out. The fuel gauge has yet to come on. I'm aiming for 350+ miles. I usually average about 270 when the last bar finally goes out. However, I have never driven so conservative, I let the car coast down hills and to red lights, and when I am cruising with traffic, every so often I will drop it in neutral and coast. Mind you this is with an occasional v-tech and decent acceleration up to speed. The coasting really improves mpg. I will let you know tomorrow if I can hit 350.

My best so far is 370. All freeway miles at about 65-75 with top up. Put in just under 12 gallons. The most I have ever put in is 12.8 gallons, but the car was stuttering rolling into the station.
