Default Miles per tank

Just a quick question for everyone. With general day to day driving, how many miles can you generally get out of your tank of gas? I know there are so many factors in determining this. I'm not asking how awful your milage can be on a track day. I'm just asking with your general commute, how many miles do you get out of your tank of gas. Thanks!

I usually don't run my tank all the way down. I usually get to about 230-250 miles to 3/4 of a tank.

I don't know the range for a whole tank. But my AP1 got in average 11.3km/litre. Pretty close to Honda's figure.

Miles per tank is a horrible metric. You should convert to MPG or L/100 km first before comparing.

I don't drive much highway. I routinely get 20 mpg (200-220 mi).

Everytime I fill up (usually is about half or 3/4 empty) I do the math real quick on my phone and I get about 21-22mpg. I drive freeway maybe once per fill up. When I drove on the freeway 4 times a few fill ups ago I got 25mpg.
