Yes, I know gas mileage will vary depending on driving style. Yet I'm still wondering how many miles I can get out of my dx civic hatch. I usually fill up around 300 miles. The gas guage reads just over the red. MPG = 34-39 depending on traffic/ driving style. What are you guys getting. When the gas light goes off opprox. how many miles do you have to fill up. The gas tank is approx 10 gallons correct?

i usually get 28-32 mpg... around 300 miles to a tank. my car tends to have trouble starting when its down under 1/4 of a tank, so thats usually when i fill it up. i dont let it get that close to empty.

thats good, if you let it get too low you'll damage your fuel pump.... i get about 270 a tank, but that's stop and go city driving,,, i'll post my times for the highway this weekend when i head to atlanta

i get about 290-300 on 9 gallons, mostly city. oh, i tend to be a granny shifter too, that'll save you a lot of gas.
