Also realize that colder weather is more dense with oxygen so more oxygen needs more fuel to burn. Also takes longer for the car to warm up.

My bro's 93 LX with 125,000 miles gets 300+miles/tank. I drive it most of the time and I drive it hard.
I think you guys better fine tune your cars better. Even my turbo car got at least 250/tank with some hard runs.
