i get anywhere from 250 to 400 on a tank of gas. replace the sending unit. its not that hard. just make sure you tank is almost empty.

87 miles?
You might do better if you didn't drive WOT at all times, would also probably save you some speeding tickets, too. WIN-WIN, baby!

Damn this sucks. Im getting about 180-200max with a 99 4 door 18 gallon tank. I drive conservatively, tires filled to max psi, tuneup done about 5000 miles ago, oil change regularly. I do a lot of local traveling, but even on highway doing about 65-70mph im still getting about 16mpg. I dont know it sucks i would love to get around the 20's like everyone is saying!

search it up! there are plenty of things to do to your engine to free up some mpgs. search around a bit.
