Just by doing basic math and watching my fuel gauge, knowing what the tank holds, etc... I figured 20-24 MPG on the "free" tank of old gas (6+ months) that was in my Van when I bought it. I just replaced the water pump and put it on the road legally, so I haven't had a chance to get actual data with it, hence the reason for the broad estimate.
After I burn out the rest of my crap gas laying around, fix the leaks, and do one more oil change with 0w30, I'll have better tank-to-tank figures. Still can't really afford a ScanGauge yet, but now I'm equipped with something that can use it once I can afford it.
Rick - Was that the long or short wheelbase model? Did you ever make an attempt at hypermiling it?
