My 93 DX 4dr can squeeze 300 miles out of a 10 gallon tank with a bad cylinder head. I will probably get more out of it when I replace the head here in a week or so. This is also assuming you keep your foot out of the radiator if you don't you can expect as little as 200 but still with gas cheap its a good car. I have heard of DX owners getting around 350 as well.

It comes with a 10 gallon tank stock I don't know how big a tank you can put in it. I really wouldnt mess with it though cause they are designed to fit with a certain size tank and you would have to do a lot of fab work to change the size of the tank to a bigger tank cause of where it is mounted.

340 miles on a 22 gallon fill-up in my F-150 V6. That's 15-16 mpg all highway rush hour commuting. At least 87 octane is only $1.42 here right now. it was killing me at $3.85.
