Not entirely sure I don't trust my gauge. It stays right on the line for the first 100 miles, drops down slowly to half a tank (around 250 miles) then RAPIDLY drops down to below the bottom line, but it still has a good5 gallons in it at least. Everytime it gets down to the bottom line, I put about 8 gallons in it. It shouldhold 12 gallons. Oh, it also fluctuates like mad on hilly roads. Bah.

But yeah, easily 400 miles per fill up if I push it, which I rarely do.

My 93 Accord was insane. About 46mpg CITY driving. Loved the gas mileage of that car - hated the power.
