How Many MIles Do you Avg b/w Fillups?

I've owned my car for 19 months. Here are my fill ups so far:


793.6
858.4
1371.8
1134.7
2088.2
1798.2
2334.4

 

Miles between fill-ups
525
556
585
547
917
817
900

 

i have to look at the spreadsheet, hang on a sec.

around 1,350.

 

I usually fill-up between 800-900 miles, but I hit the gas station when I'm down to two pips on the fuel gauge.

 

On this tank I'm at 1327 miles and still have a full tank! (40 miles HV).
(Yes, I know I need to use a tank every 6 months or so...some longer trips coming up in the next couple of months)

Southern California is the place for the PiP...... here in Upstate NY, we've only got three months of really warm weather, making the other 9 months a challenge ......
12/23/12 - 648.1
2/2/13 - 746.3
2/23/13 - 570.0
4/2/13 - 728.9
5/6/13 - 943.9
7/16/13 - 1515.1
9/15/13 - 1145.1
current tank estimate - 950+
Mileage is already starting to fall........

 

my first and only fill-up was 4300 miles
3 gallons down on tank #2 and 2600 miles so on pace for 8,000+

 

SWEET!

 

Average 1000 miles per tank = once a month.

Scrolling through the trip computer will bring you to one setting that shows the estimated fuel range. I don't have a ton of experience with it so far, but it always seems a bit pessimistic to me. I believe it also will read zero miles to go with ~2 gallons of fuel remaining.

 

Push the Trip button on the steering wheel until you see the DTE on the dash. It cycles between A, B, DTE, and Odometer.

 

Personally I fillup once my ratio screen says I've used 9 gallons.

 

that's correct and why my first fill-up was done with just 8 gallons used - the read had me concerned I was close to empty

 

I use the 9 gallon rule as well… but only when I know I have to drive into LA the next day and will be using fuel. If I am driving around my hood in electric, then I do not fill up until the day before I plan on using gas.

 

Current tank 1,556 miles ~1/2 tank remaining
5/4/13 1,002 miles 5.70 gallons
2/9/13 800 miles 6.43 gallons
11/10/12 422 miles 3.69 gallons

 

About 825 - 850. I'm trying to make the 1,000, but haven't yet, there's always been a longer run or two where I couldn't do enough EV.

I tend to fill up at 1 pip, though I am also normally aiming for a particular cheap filling station (cheap for the UK, anyway) on my commute. I only recently realised that what I thought was a 45 litre tank is actually only a 40 litre tank, so my 37.5 litre fill up when the one pip was blinking and my range was down to 5 miles was rather hairier than I thought...

 

920 mils on the trip odometer and down to two pips on the fuel gauge, so it's off to the gas station tonight. $3.09 a gallon.

 

Well, the price at my favourite place is only about two of your American dollars...

Unfortunately that's per litre...
