    Nice site. Good to see that I am still within a standard deviation of mileage for people.

    My first "dealer" tank got 48.1 mpg in 50F weather with many highway miles. Am now on the second tank with temps in the 20's (no grill block), mixed city/hwy driving, and I'm at 46.3mpg over 300 miles.

    I consider this very good considering the weather in Michigan (snow the past 5 days) and I look forward to the summer MPG raise.

    I just finished my first tank, and I averaged 46mpg. I hope it gets better, but even that is much better than my previous car!

    It is normal for the first tank to empty; :D
    Although the future is unknown and can not be predicted, you may expect a regular visit to a gas station. :blink:
