Not sure where to post this, please move if in the wrong place.

I was wondering if there is anything I can do, or if there is a problem concerning my gas mileage. It seems I do not get much out of a tank of gas. I drive a lot of highway miles but it still seems my gas goes way too quickly. Any ideas/suggestions???
 


when was the last time it got a full tune up, fuel system cleaner, o2 sensors replaced? all that is vital 4 good gas mileage. i drive a modded gtp and still get 27-29 mpg highway cause i keep it up, and its got 162k miles on it.
 
Miles on full tank divided by gallons used @ fillup. Run three or four tanks and tell us what your MPG is and what your car is.
That hleps in figuring out what up. :th_skull:

Since your car appears new to you, and since winter gas is probably being used most places now, it takes a little time to figure baseline and trends.
 
According to my DIC my estimated MPG are, hwy 28-30 city 23-25. it varies depending on the traffic, if I have get too many red lights of course is going down, if on the hwy a slow driver make me slow down then accelerate again it affects MPG. How accurate is that? I think is very accurate because I drove 25 miles from the hospital to my house and my DIC said I used 1 gallon, so 25 miles drove and 1 gallon used and my DIC showed 25.5... good right? lol
