    13-14 is correct. When I fill up, in the yellow zone right above E I put in 15 gallons.

    best way to find your gas mileage is to calculate how many miles you drove and then divide by how much fuel it took to drive that far.

    For instance my last tank of fuel was 14.9 gallons to refill and I went 167.2 miles...11.22MPG...my car is REALLY hating the cold weather.

    I find I get better gas mileage if I keep the gas pedal about 2" above the carpet on the floorboard. I'm still getting less than 20 MPG in this weather due to warm up time.

    12.9 on my last fill up. E85, mostly in town. I usually let it warm up for a couple minutes before each trip. Oh, and my kids like to see the boost gauge max out. So that doesn't help either. LOL

    Got 13 mpg from 2/27 to 3/18, all city and short trips of course. 13 is ok, I'm down 2 mpg from this time last year though, which is odd. I was getting 15.1 this time last year. I have some intermittent starting issues too, I'm going to replace the upstream o2 sensor because it could help my mpg's. The original one is still in there now, it doesn't really look too good and the rear one already went bad, might as well do the important one. For $31 for an oem Ac Delco, you can't go wrong.
