How Many Days Does A Tank Of Gas Last
I'm curious to know how many days it takes before you go on empty?
Please include information on average miles drivin in a day. Also include what speed you were driving at.
Your input would be greatly appreciated.

One tank can last me 2-3 weeks, or more. However, two of my roommates have cars so we share rides, and I ride my bike a lot.
Avg. miles/day = 10 or less around town mostly so 35mph ish.
I'm probably not an average driver.

i wouldn't necessarily say it lasts longer. My truck got about 18-21 mpg, but it had an 18 gal tank. with the fit its possible to make it last longer because the mpg can range from 30-50mpg. it really depends on the driver.

about 60miles one way to work. I typically drive the Fit to work Mon-Fri and we drive the wifes CRV (AT) on the weekend or during the week as a family(I try to get her to do most of the driving and the AT gives me a break when I drive it! ). For a while now, a tank has been lasting me 5-6 days for my daily commuting, good reason to hypermile.

~14 days. My girlfriend and I carpool to work, we alternate on a weekly basis between my fit and her '02 Civic. We drive about 16 miles each way, with a little over half of that being 65mph and the other have being city ~35mph.

Seems like a very subjective question, since it depends on how much one drives. I don't drive much (I live on campus), so a tank can last me up to a month. Though, there are nights I just feel like driving around for 50+ miles =P

but anyway, i usually last about a week. just driving mostly speed limit on streets and ~65-70 on highway. i'm not sure about my avg. miles per day, it really fluctuates a lot, but i guess around 47 miles per day, though most of my miles are put on during the weekends.

A tank of gas in my truck will last me about 6-7 days. Though I do know that it's because of the larger tank. Does anyone know if a vehicle will get better mileage if it is not driven for a month, and then driven until empty? It seems to be the case with my Silverado.

yeah, it might be better to ask about how many miles people get per tank before they fill up again, which i think would be ~300-340 miles for most people. then you can just figure out about how many miles you drive per day and see about how many days you'd last.

Also for context the OP did ask us to post miles driven and speeds etc..
