I think my car ('15 GTPP) typically says 265 miles to empty at fill-up. Mine is not a daily driver so I generally top it off when it gets to 1/2 tank. I have made 1 500 mile trip in the car and I did have to stop 2x for gas but the car was 1/2 full starting out. This was AFTER the SC was installed and computer said 22.9 MPG for the trip and I generally drive 75 - 80 on the hwy.

Just topped off today, got 240 on 50/50 hwy/city driving, but the meter was indicating only 3 miles to E, so I really pushed it. 10k miles on the car. Typically low fuel indication comes on around 190-220 with the mixed commute and I like to run through the gears.

OP, couple of things to remember though:
1. This isn't a fuel efficient car.
2. Not sure how many miles you have but mileage will continue to improve a little up to 3-4k miles (least this was my observation).
3. 155-165 does sound pretty low, but there are lots of variables here, it may be normal. Don't think I've ever seen lower than about 180 on a tank.

Hello, I picked up a 2017 grabber blue GT base with PP the beginning of this month. During the break in period I was getting 200 miles per tank which seemed a little low considering I kept the RPMS under 3k. Now that my break in is done I am getting 155-165 per tank. It really is annoying to be filling up every 2 days so I wanted to make sure everything with my car is right. How many miles are you guys getting per fill up?

Half City and half highway is what I am currently doing and I am in SoCal CA is that makes a difference.

Car is 100% stock except for the Roush cat back exhaust. Car currently has 1350 miles on it.

When I first picked up my car, I was getting around 10mpg learning how to drive it (first stick shift; around 175-210 miles till E). This past weekend I finally got to 14 MPG (between 250 and 300 miles till E); mostly highway with very little rush hour traffic driving. Also in SoCal area.

~245 miles a tank 90% city driving 3.31 gears. Normally drive in track mode and shift at 2-2.5k. I give it 1-2 spirited pulls a day and 1-2 WOT 1-2-3 runs a week. I work close to home so I usually get at least a week out of a tank.

My 2015 Supercharged GT Convertible gets just under 400 on the FWY at a cruise controlled 55 MPH (happened once). Generally, 14.5gal*15mpg=217.5 per tank.
I have gotten as low as 140 miles on a tank on an uphill very windy road in the S
position. Depends wildy on how I driv

Maybe you're shifting too high. I usually shift around 2250-2500 just cruising in a pp gt and get about 250-260 miles a tank almost all city. I only put in 93.

i get around 15.6 to 18 in city.. depending how cranky i am... but here is the deal. if you have gt.. don bother too much about gas issues.

15mpg. 80% city driving (45mph zones)

Your car is definitely capable of going further than 200 miles per tank. I typically get 360 mi/tank (15' GT, Auto, 3.55). On long highway/backroad trips i get about 430 mi/tank.

Do you take off in 2nd? First gear is so short, I feel myself shifting at about 3K.

I have 1400+ miles on mine and I set the second trip odometer when I got. It's at 19.7mpg since the beginning. I get around 300+ per tank. It's an auto with 3.55s and I drive in sport+ 90% of the time.

GT w/ PP here. I usually get about 14 mpg, or 200 miles per 14.5 gallons of gas. On a good day driving more highway than usual and cruising in 6th, I can see an average of 19 mpg for a tank of gas, but that's atypical for me, since most of my driving is in the city. Cruising on the highway I do see the same ~24+ mpg that other people get, but my average is never that high.

I also shift upwards of 4-5k and sometimes cruise in a lower gear and higher RPM. I didn't buy this car to penny pinch of gasoline.

I have a lifetime average of 19.0 MPG I don't drive like a monster, but I like to hear/feel that V-8 quite often. I reset the monitor when I got on the FWY this morning and Avg 31.3 MPG on the FWY

315-340 per tank never seen under 300 something sound wrong the way your driving it should be higher unless you do 80% city driving.
