as the title reads, how many miles do u get from full to empty light in town?

 

Depending on how much I floor it, I get between 270-290 miles before the light comes on. I drive mostly in town, but do occasionally take my Fit up on the highway.

 

yeh im around there too but i started driving freeway more now
so ill see how thats going
im starting to get 33mpg more often now instead of 30mpg

im mostly starting to baby my car cuz it just hit over 10,0000miles
and gas prices are like $$$$$$

 

i get 28-29 mpg all city driving

 

ya i think im getting around 260 intown, i think i take the rpm's alittle to high

 

I usually get to about 285-295 when the light comes on, and I drive a good ~30 miles before filling up. I shift between 3000 and 3500rpm into 2nd, 3rd, and 4th, but shift at 3000 when going into 5th.

 

I get about 380 miles until the fuel light comes on.

Not joking. I used to get only about 270 miles when I drove like a nut. Now I'm all about maximizing mileage.

 

what!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 380 in town??????????? How do u do that, i dont even think i can get that on the freeway

 

380-390 sounds about right for around 40mpg. That's right in the range for what I'm getting using some, but not all, hypermileage techniques. I want to see someone push it over 400 miles consistently on one tank. Bring your extra one-gallon gas tank with you.

 

320-330 usually all city driving at altitude. in the winter when its cold 280-290.

 

I'm at 406 miles right now on the tank - and the light is not on yet. The needle is touching the upper-right hand corner of "E"... so about 20 more miles till the light comes on. Then another gallon to go. I should be able to get ~ 460 miles on this tank.

 

I get around 270 a tank and thats a combination of city and highway. I do alot better on just highway but in traffic i cant stand slow drivers so i usually do alot of passing.

 

well congrats on all those amazingly high numbers, how can i get those? certain things i should do or something? thanks a ton

 

Thanks. As a follow-up: the fuel light came on at 408 miles (earlier than I thought it would). For this tank: 425.2 miles, 9.300 gallons ==> 45.72 MPG.


How can I get those (fuel economy numbers)?

• http://www.cleanMPG.com - Hypermile...
• Accelerate slower (act as if a raw egg is between your foot and the gas pedal)
• Up your tire pressure to max sidewall pressure (mine are at 55 PSI)
• When you see a yellow/red light ahead, coast to the light (Fit uses 0.2-0.3 gallons/hour at idle)
• Drive no faster than the speed limit
• Drive 55 on the highway (in the far-right lane, of course)

You can dramatically improve your fuel economy numbers!

 

I drive 60+ miles a day & that's about where I'm at too! I just bought a K&N... hopefully it'll help!

 

sweet thanks

 

260-270 and always 8.9 gallons to refill

 

I squeezed 350 out of my last tank, averaging 38MPG on my daily commute.

 

Very good mileage!

Just think - you're getting better fuel economy than 95% of the population.

 

Yeah, I finally achieved my goal of making it 200 miles on half a tank. I think I got 217-220 on a half tank, hoping to beat the 350 this time. I pay close attention to the Scan Gauge everyday now. I really think that having the TPS displayed helps a lot because I can see how far I'm putting my foot into it!
