Do you do that hypermiling thing?
The in car mileage meter in mine usually registers between 37-40 mpg. I think it's probably a couple higher than reality. I have gotten close to 400 miles out of the tank. But yeah, 80% of the time my car is an appliance, so I take it pretty easy. 60-70 on the highway. I don't rev over 3500 that often. Finding the higher gear when that's appropriate in town.

The other 20% of the time though, I enjoy the car. While I don't bump off the rev-limiter often, I have a great time revving through the lower gears. And hitting the twisties is spectacular.
