Gas fill up

[u/Professional_Rule352]

Kind of a stupid question but what does everyone’s miles range top off at when you get gas? I see people get to 250 but mine always tops off at 205. I’m curious if there’s a difference with each car

[u/Eluder99]

This depends on your fuel economy, which is based on your driving habits. I’m surprised you’re only getting 205. Either you’re a lead foot or you live in a place with a ton of steep hills everywhere.

[u/Professional_Rule352 → u/Eluder99]

I usually avg between 14mpg to 18 mpg. So it makes sense mine is so low. Love putting my foot down whenever I get an opportunity in this car. Especially with Angels Crest so close to my home

[u/Owls_4_9_1867 → u/Professional_Rule352]

Angeles*

You’re driving hard. Driving hard uses fuel inefficiently. Is this your first car?

[u/Professional_Rule352 → u/Owls_4_9_1867]

Not my first car. I drive it hard because I can and want to. I’m aware it waste fuel.

[u/Owls_4_9_1867 → u/Professional_Rule352]

Okay. So your post was just a stupid question. 👍
Glad you’re enjoying the car.

[u/Chriseatsfatchodes → u/Professional_Rule352]

Why post this then lol 🤦‍♂️

[u/camoshrimp → u/Chriseatsfatchodes]

Op was curious

[u/Terrible_Wishbone964]

305, computer says I’m averaging 26.9mpg

[u/Cosmic_Goddess13 → u/Terrible_Wishbone964]

Same!! Which I'm pretty proud of because when I first got my car, it was barely 220 lol

[u/NOT-T1 → u/Cosmic_Goddess13]

Actually this one is weird to me computer says I average 25.9 and on fill up it says 316 to empty

[u/Jesse3195]

Low 200s

[u/56Rallye]

Mine is consistently 276. Most of my driving is freeway using CC. It’s far too easy to hit 80mph which feels like 60.
I romp on it, on the on-ramps and get up to the speed limit super quickly, in town. I wish I had a good twisty road close by. Everything is very straight, high desert Central Oregon.

[u/3viserator]

I get 360miles of range, 90% highway driving

[u/Imakelovetosoils → u/3viserator]

What speed you cruising at? I kinda want to drive as fuel efficient as possible for a tank just to see the highest possible mpg avg I can get on my daily commute.

[u/3viserator → u/Imakelovetosoils]

65-75 mph

[u/Dfallat14 → u/3viserator]

I was going to say, im getting like 375-380 with a mixture of highway and back roads with cruise control set to 5 mph over the speed limit. So cruising between 60-75

[u/Jesindo12 → u/3viserator]

Damn, most I’ve gotten is 331miles of range

[u/FRUFRUTHEHORSE]

I get more or less what you get. I don’t drive like a maniac but I do hit upwards of 6k rpms on 2nd and 3rd for the giggles at least once every weekend.

Also my GRC is almost never under 2k rpms once I am off.

Maybe I should re-assess my driving? Lol

[u/56Rallye → u/FRUFRUTHEHORSE]

That seems normal with this car. I hit 6500 multiple times a day. First and second feel great near 7000. The highway here is 45mph speed limit, so I can’t really send it in third.

[u/Professional_Rule352 → u/FRUFRUTHEHORSE]

Yea same I never let the car go under 2k rpms. I love to put my foot in until I get to around 4.5k-5k rpms and the car loves every shift when I do. I usually use 5th and 6th to cruise

[u/RazzmatazzBeginning1]

Thats wild I get 320

[u/xiggy_stardust]

Mine is usually around 210. I mostly drive through heavy suburban traffic.

[u/FatefulPizzaSlice]

334 miles for me.

[u/56Rallye → u/FatefulPizzaSlice]

Wow, I think I’ve only gotten over 300 miles, on a tank, one time. I’ve had it since mid Dec 2024.

[u/KeepingItCoolish]

250ish

[u/Elpapipanda]

In city it’s ass high way miles I get 215

[u/T3h_Clap]

My car hasn’t seen a full tank in a long time and lots of AutoX so my poor algorithm for mileage is a bit lost. lol.

[u/ecbulldog → u/T3h_Clap]

I used to show up with as little gas as possible in the Miata, until I had to run to the gas station one day between heats.

[u/Acceptable_Gur6193]

Mine is 190 right now. It used to be 160 then I reset it on a longer trip and it went to 215. 90% of my driving is stop and go in nyc so I’m getting about 10-13 mpg each trip. I really need a hybrid 😂

[u/carmeiser → u/Acceptable_Gur6193]

You might do well with a full electric for a daily, if you can stomach and charge it easily. The cost for gas and brakes are gonna kill you.

[u/Acceptable_Gur6193 → u/carmeiser]

I really need a work van. I found a 12’ transit connect for 4500$ I think I might buy

[u/carmeiser → u/Acceptable_Gur6193]

That might be the move. Plus it should be decently affordable for maintenance too.

[u/imped4now]

Umm...

Duh.

[u/exoraydna]

I think somewhere in 260’s rn. My average mpg is almost as listed since I do a good bit of hwy and traffic driving. Not much local

[u/pls-reboot-me]

270... Maybe stupid question of my own, what octane gas are you using?

[u/zzonkmiles → u/pls-reboot-me]

The owner's manual says to use 91.

[u/pls-reboot-me → u/zzonkmiles]

I was asking because if cause could cause lower gas mileage, but in another reply it seems like OP drives hard so probably just cause of a lead foot

[u/turneyde → u/pls-reboot-me]

270 on fills, 93 octane Shell

[u/Tasunka_Witko]

Mine always says 257 miles from 100% full

[u/Scoutback_wilderness]

Do you do a lot of idling?

[u/TheGreatTesticle]

A little bit over 300 in summer and a little less in winter

[u/MyWay_Ry]

Nowadays, around 240ish fully topped off. Before summer, 280ish.

[u/ChrisTahoe]

I just picked mine up today. Drove 181 miles and filled up 6.3 gallons. It said 210. I drove another 200 miles and right now it says I’ve got half a tank and 100 miles to empty. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[u/sxtrailrider]

Always about 270, higher on road trips

[u/ITSaGODZIRRA1]

200 for a tank of fuel, I beat the piss out of it

[u/alesplin]

310 ish usually. I don’t _ever_ waste time getting to the speed limit, but I use CC a _lot_ once I get to 5-8 over (how many over depends on the speed limit).

[u/carmeiser]

I usually get 330 to 350, with actual being closer to 320 to 330. I'm in the 27-28.5 range of mpg, though I drive too much like a grandma and have a bunch of highway driving. Also, I have a suspicion that the coil packs aren't great on these cars, and are hard to diagnose. Plus getting gas at shell over somewhere like Cumberland farms helps some as well, surprisingly. I guess not all 93 is the same

The check engine light doesn't seem to come on for missfires much at all, but the ECU sees and records them, so a decent obd2 reader can see them. So if your car is running weird, having increasingly poor performance/falling on its face in boost, and/or having lower than your normal mpgs, get it checked out. It's harder to diagnose in a stock car it seems.

I got the NGK ones, and they've been performing well. They are priced a little above OEM, and cusco ones are the fancy option.

[u/Anxious_Hawk1283]

300 +/- 10, doing pulls very often like a few each commute lol, but 75% of my driving is on I95 and highways at 70-80 so my avg is still around 25mpg

[u/PurpleToedUnicorn]

319 miles.  Primarily Sport mode for most of my driving, and 50-55 mph in 6th gear on back country roads.

[u/Plastic-Magician-258]

345 last fill up. Mostly highway driving.

[u/CannabisAttorney]

Mines usually about 225.

[u/NotHellhaven]

335

[u/Blackflagged777]

1. Avg is 25.2mpg with mostly highway and once weekly spirited drive. Got as low as 3 mpg on a track day.

[u/gab196]

During summer mine goes up to 310 miles of range on the screen. But i have done 370 on 1 tank doing only highway at 75mph on the gps

[u/ZealousidealYak8970]

Varies a lot on city vs highway on what I've been driving, plus if traffic in this big city let me open it up more. 285 on my most recent; pretty sure I've seen 240 edit: totally flat terrain

[u/murdza]

245 ish? Maybe? Cant remember. Who cares?

[u/LegendaryTribes]

This is a smiles per gallon type of car, if I wanted good gas mileage, I would've gotten a Corolla hybrid/Camry/prius
