Pushing a tank of gas to the limit.
 

I've recently had a week long 4200km road trip vacation, with two adults and camping gear.

I pulled a Seinfled-esque below the E due to a lack of gas stations on rural roads. I managed 733km, with "normal" driving up until the last 30 or so km (which turned into a lot of clutch-in coasting down hills).

On straight highway cruising I was getting 725ish km/tank.

How far have you pushed a tank?

733 km in a tank? wow..

That's impressive. With my regular driving, some city, some highway, and just a bit of WOT here and there the most I have managed is 520km and when I filled up I was on the gas light right on the empty line and I only put in 42L. Meaning there was about 8L left in the tank.

Kramer FTW.

curious to know what other drivers are getting out of a tank

500km all city driving.

Went to Ottawa last weekend and manage to get 725, brought my average to 6.0, fill up 46.7 litter.

Got close to 800km mostly highway driving, filled up about 45litres, so ten litres left in the tank, i believe its 55 litre tAnk

It's a 50L tank, I always get about 450km city driving and I fill up with about 38L of gas , so another 12L should get me another 110km .

Normal city driving = approx. 530km (fuel light come on)
Semi-spirited driving = approx 400km (fuel light come on)

Shell V power gas.

Took a trip to Seattle and got 650km on the tank with about 100km of that being city driving. Got a speeding ticket on the I-5 while going between 70-80 the whole way there and back.

Aren't you using more fuel when you coast clutched in to keep the engine idling? As opposed to coasting down a hill in gear with your foot off the gas and using 0 fuel?

So do most of you assume the light comes on with 10L left? Ie, about 150km left? Seems high.

^ sounds about right.
