200 miles on 1/2 tank

Just pulled into my garage and from the last 2 weeks of driving like i have an egg under my gas pedal and doing the speed limit i have done 200 miles on 1/2 a tank.

 

I have been driving like a bat out of hell and I get about 240 miles per tank so you are doing pretty good.

 

Thats pretty damn good most effective mod is the egg.

 

is that the first half of tank? cus i get about 190 miles. and the botton half MAYBE 130.

 

I usually get about 200 miles on the first half and 150-175 on the second half. I always fill up before the light comes on though.

 

I always fill up when I get to 1/4th a tank. I generally get about 90-100 miles per 1/4th a tank..

 

I was thinking the same thing....

If you get 200 in the first half of the tank - you can't assume you're gonna get 400 for the total tank.

 

forgot to add this little bit i have the 4.0 v6 and yes its the first half and only about 44 of those miles was highway. when i accelerate my tach doesnt go over 2k rpms

 

On my 4 cyl manual trans I get between 250-270 on the first half. If I fill then to prevent sticker shock, It takes right at 10 gallons to fill. At 1/4 tank level I am usually right around 400 miles. It takes about 15 gallons to fill at that point.

 

200 on first half, Impressive, no lift and big tires will do that for you. Unfortunately those of us with those mods dont get close to that (mods, personal choice). but 200 thats sweet!!

 

nice let us know how the overall mpg for the tank turns out. I agree the 2nd 1/2 goes faster.

 

I regularly get 190-200 on 1/2 tank, but I'm lucky to get past 300 before the light comes on.

 

i have noticed too the second half gets less. Best i ever got was 345 miles on one tank. Thats from completely full to when the dumby light comes on.

 

Around town I get 250 ish I recently went to colorado so my miledge would fluxuate best tank was 400 miles worst was 330 speed limts change from 65 to 75 going west And I always do 5 mph over the speed limit my truck love the gas over 75mph below that it does well.

 

Still taking it easy going to a from work im at 292.4 miles with 1/4 of a tank still left tomorrow got to make my weekly 20 mile interstate run then im going to fill up and se what the milage is. This weekend going to the mountians but i get in a hurry when i got someplace to go so dont plan on that tank doing to good 65-70 mph speed limit and i usually run 10 over.

 

+1

 

Screw it. I just drive and look for cheap gas. I have kids man, I can't bog my mind down with watching a tachometer all day. At the end of the day, I'm still saving a fortune off my Expedition that I traded in for the Tacoma.

 

Ireally dont watch my tach i just feel everything by the seat of my pants. i just look at the tach everynow and then to whats it doing.

 

Filled up today. Had 309 on my last tank, but that was pretty much coasting into the gas station...
Lot of city stuff. Pulling and loading trees from the storm.
