500+ Mile tank
I have been working toward a 500 mile tank for a long time. Lots of tanks I could have gotten it if I wasn't planning on doing a lot of driving the next day, or something to that effect. I know my car will run dry after consuming 10 gallons of gas (even though it has a 10.6 gallon tank, don't ask me how I know...), so that means I HAVE to be averaging over 50 mpg to make it work. Now, 50mpg is nothing new to Suzi, or to me, but I have seen 48 or 49 enough times to give me a bit of a reality check, so it's always a little nerve racking to go for big miles. As it turns out, I filled up with 9.56 gallons and 501.3 miles on the tank. This milestone also prompted me to update my fuel log, which hadn't been updated since mid-February.
