Best I've done was ~300 mi on a tank, put 11 gallons in and ran the trip odo to about that much. Normally I get around 200 miles per 9 gallon fillup, but I'm not gentle.

Ok, so its a 3 year old thread. But what the heck...

I routinely get 300 miles before the light comes on. I dd with an 80 mile commute, so its a lot of hwy, though its almost always top down, which takes its toll on aero.

I've done 305 once before the light came on.

Same here. I usually get about 200 miles until I have 4 ticks left on my 2006 gas Gage with strictly city driving in tallahassee. But I've gotten 320 miles out of a tank on the highway with the top down (it came out to like 31 or 32 mpg)

You guys are nuts! Maybe its because most of you have AP2s? I have an 03 AP1, I usually get 215-220. I visit VTEC as often as I blink though.....

When I was commuting to school and work (mostly 2 lane roads, but not many stop signs or traffic lights), I routinely got 34.5 mpg.

Now that I'm just commuting to work, which is a 3 mile drive with more hills and stops, I'm getting around 30-31.

Setup is AP1 with 2.2 shortblock, completely stock except test pipe. Not sure why I get such good mileage, but I'm not complaining! One day I'd like to test pure highway mileage. I bet I could break 35mpg.

I get about 275 miles before the light comes up. At that point there is one bar left.
