I do mostly city driving. I run about 275 with the A/C or consistantly 300 without.
I do about the same on freeway trips but that is not at reasonable speeds.
I'm usually in a hurry. Making deliveries by deadline. I am definately a leadfoot.
might make a difference the gen of car. Mines a '91. I think they were lighter? B18a no VTEC

I get anywhere from 300-350 mpt depending how I drive it. Right now I'm having problems with the car running properly and am only getting about 225-250 mpt. If I was getting this type of mileage all of the time I would be worried about it.

It depends on how much gas you leave in your tank before you fill up. I usually wait till the yellow remind light comes on. So 280-320 (all fwy miles)/tank ~12 gallons.

Its not a smart idea to let the tank go below 1/4. Your fuel pump is lubricated by the gasoline in the tank. When you let it get below 1/4 you expose the fuel pump, which is just a rubber pump. Great way to ruin it years before you should have.
