    Pretty pleased with this.

    My lad took another picture after we got to the fuel station and I was filling up.

    For me the secret seems to run the tank low and refuel at a motorway service station at the start of a long journey thereby avoiding the low mpg drive out of town.

    I'm doing it! I'm doing it! Each tank gets a little better. Most of my driving is highway with some stop and go city sprinkled in. I am on a mission to get 60. I believe I'm going to do it.

    I have the same car as you and I am getting the same MPG as you. Where I live it is perfectly flat, no hills.

    I've never reached 500 miles on my trip meter because that last bar scares me since I drive mostly highways. It says there's only 32 miles left in the tank. Is that thing accurate? The bar isn't blinking yet. The further I ever drove was close to 500 miles when it started blinking but when I filled it up, it only took 10.2 gallons.

    You still have around 2 gallons when it starts blinking.

    Thanks! I made it with plenty to spare. I filled up and it only took up 9.3 gallons. I get nowhere near the mileage you guys seem to be getting in this thread though. I only had 474.9 miles from that tank. :(

    68 miles on one flashing pip...

    halfway through the tank the car had the inverter recall flash performed. I think it dropped my average as when i got in the car after the service was performed, the average fuel mileage had dropped quite a bit. probably as a result of he car sitting on while in the garage.
