I'm chipped and get about 300 miles to a tank. Last couple times I've calculated my gas mileage after filling her up, I've gotten between 20 and 22 mpg.

from my calculations it comes out to be around 35mpgs that i got lol.
265miles / 7.5galons = 35.3 mpg (whole tank is around 15) i wish i could get them from daily driving haha
