How many miles are you getting on a full tank of gas?

[krow]

i get 300 miles to from full to 1/4 left....on the highway

in town i get like 250 - 270

Wait till you get aftermarket rims...it will drop.

[diablos991]

27mpg in town.

30-31mpg on the freeway.


Pure stock G FTW!

I have never got below 300 miles on a tank. I have always been well above.


I am using a V6 btw

what if said wheels are only 14 pounds....

what if said wheels are only 14 pounds....

Its the width of the tire that matters...more friction and traction on the road. My stock rims were 15"x6" and I went to 18"x8.5" and went from about 26 mpg to 21 mpg. After I put on my CAI I gained on average 1 to 2 mpg.

[blue8g]

they're only 215's if i get the ones i want....

[littlerick]

i've got 215/45/17's on mine and i average 26 or so mpg i was at around 30 or so before but my rims arent that heavy they are enkei cdr9's

[E_Emerson88]

i got 235/35r19 tires on some chromies. i get about 220 miles. like 19 MPG =[

[PearlG]

i get about 200 miles mostly cause there city miles and i drive like im crazy

[[DC_eightG_00]]

high way driving i just got 260 on a full tank.. city i usually do 180 which sucks..

[Kyleg]

around town, usually between 150-200, most I have ever squeezed out of a tank was around 300 miles, just over iirc, normal long run, around 220-250, so for all of you who want a VR4 take note of this lol

i think the 4 cylinder gets worse gas mileage then han the v6 just because it has to work so hard to move the car around. i recently started getting 300 miles to the tank city and highway but before with the 19's i could never top 250 unless all highway

My brother has a 4cylinder YJ and his gas mileage sucks...its like 15 mpg because the engine can't push his tires.

I get about 280 to 300 to the 1/4 tank mark and i have a 2.4. but, its hard to be acuraye since i can get like 150 mile before it hits the 3/4 mark, and then it just seems to drop.

[chastiser]

I get about 23-24mpg city/highway. City only and it drops to 15-16mpg. I4 2.4

Still not bad, I drove Prius recently (50mpg?) and you can only drive that car WOT. So you can never get good mileage flooring it all the time.
If you put something heavy in the car = "forget about it"

[blue8g]

honestly i don't think it's the lack of power that kills the 4g64's mileage it's the gearing when i'm doing 65-70 mph i'm pulling 3000-3500 rpm

[stvn_mj]

plus it been a heavy ass car.

[littlerick]

the new prius has a little more power too it and still gets 50mpg, i still wouldnt want one but it surprised me. it wasnt much slower than my galant.

[blue8g]

plus it been a heavy ass car.

the 8g's not that heavy not even 3000 lbs if i remember right

[stvn_mj]

I believe its a little over 3000lbs. But its heavy for that little as 4 cylinder.

Actually Galant has one of the biggest 4 cyl engines around or so I've read. Someone makes 2.5 but thats I think is as big as they get (some technical limit)
