alexmish is on a distinguished road
I am getting approx 300 miles on a tank, in a mixed local/hwy driving (70% local / 30% hwy). It was much worse during the first 1000 miles, close to what has been reported in this thread.

It will get better, you need to let it break-in a bit and learn how to drive. I am watching instant MPG gauge, and see 20mpg on local driving if the road is flat.

On a recent trip upstate, I did 310 miles before a fill up, and could go for another 70 miles if not for the fear of not finding a gas station in the mountains on a weekend
