Ken - Make sure and remind us that your gas tank is different than the NA one.

BTW - Congrats on making it into that club!

Thank you for your comment,

You're right that we don't have a bladder.
Why don't you make an 80 mpg club in NA.

Congratulations!

Achieving 1,000 miles on a single tank makes a lot of sense. It is an achievable performance goal that requires attention to detail and careful driving. Our 11 gallon tank only requires an average fuel consumption a little over 90 MPG. However, I noticed the cars listed appear to be NHW20s and one Insight, right?

Are there any NHW11 or NHW10 models in the club?

I take it use of block heaters are OK? Other than not using a tow truck, are there any other rules?

Actually, he already exceeded the 30.0km/L (70.6MPG) for his Model G Touring. 35.5km/L is for Model S.

Japan 10-15 mode
