I think to myself "sweet, im getting awesome mileage" then 3/4 to 1/2 takes about 60-70 miles. Then 1/2 to 1/4 takes about 80 miles.. Then that last quarter lasts forever... WHY IS THIS? All City Driving BTW. I have seen this too on the freeway... Going to detroit and back I saw my first 170 miles... AC the whole way, would take only 1/4 of the tank... then I got like 120 to the 1/2 point... and never went much further then that on the freeway.




This seems to be the exact thing I have and is probably happens for all SVT's...takes awhile for the needle to start dropping and when it does it goes fast. I always get stoked when it takes 80-100miles to start dropping...heh
