370+miles w/ 1/8th tank left!!!!

[computerGeek]

yep that is right folks i couldn't believe it. i drove from Germantown MD to LI NY and then back down to the first rest area in the turnpike after exit 10 heading towards deleware. I thought the guage was broken but the car just kept going and going.

I most likely could have pulled 400 miles on one tank of gas! I love the MSP more and more everyday!!!!

BTW this was 95% highway at speeds of 65-80 mph the whole way!

God bless Mazda!!!!

Yeah I get about 275-300 miles to the tank on average...includes a lot of stop & go, and 'spirited' driving. If I'm strapped for cash I have no problem squeezing 350-400 miles out of a tank.

[jesse]

Wow, thats awesome. I get about 23 mpg and i usually drive fairly normally.

[Dexter]

I always get 300 to the tank. Highway or city, dont matter. *shrugs* must be my driving. id love to push 350 even.

[ND4MSP]

It rocks for long trips. First week I had mine I tripped 400 during break in.

[Rich24km]

i get like 330 on most tanks, but i drive back and forth like not even 2 miles to work, cause i live on base, so its using alot of gas idling. I drove 5 hours non stop and went like 420 some miles on a tank before. The cars mileage isn't bad. But it sucks during the week driving to work i get like 20 miles on a quarter of a tank cause of the idle for it to warm up. But any other time its great.

[Bremmer]

I was getting at the most 300 for the longest time even when i would stay out of boost but now for the past two tanks of gas, each time i got 370 with hard driving and I just hit 8300. Is it the gas? do they add something to the gas for the winter that kills the milage?

[jonnydoe48]

do you guys warm up your car?

[KyRaceFan]

I only get about 280 miles a tank... i think i street race too much. :/

[computerGeek]

yeah i get about 280 usually maybe 300. i just can't believe it gets so much. i did this same trip in my old 350Z and didn't come close! and that is eith cruise control and huge tank.

I drive in traffic all the time. i can't wait till i get a job closer and on less of a traffic route! then i can be like most of you with the 350 mi a tank!!!

[Ryoga28]

I usually get about 270 a tank...

[03MSP]

330-350 city driving with about 1 gallon left when I fille up.

*thought I would contribute to the weekly gas thread :) *

[Ryno]

WTF I get like 270-280 too and I never street race and pretty much always have my foot out of it.

[Crock]

I took a trip the second month I had the car and got 31+ miles to the gallon. 95% highway driving 65-90 MPH. I need to slow down.

Mileage is very good.

[yashooa]

[girth]

^^I could probably top that, bitch....if I felt like living on the edge. I'm currently sitting at 391 and the little gas light isn't on yet. That's with colder than average weather too.(upyours):cool:

36 mpg how the hell ??

[Kansei]

36 mpg how the hell ??
I've gotten into the 36mpg realm before too. All highway of course, going to the NJ meet.. but it was definitely spirited highway driving, i could easily have made it all the way there and back on one tank, but i filled up in NJ and got 36.7mpg or something like that.

[spacemonkey]

Yup...very possbile...thats probally what I get. Just stay out of boost!
