260 sounds ok for the V6. I believe we all have 14.5 gallon tanks, unless they switched gas tanks on my SVT....  . I get on avg. 20 mpg now that I switched my upstream O2s.

Mother#@%@!* did I sound abstract?
I hope it sounded more confusin than that!

In the winter right now i get about 220 miles per 3/4 of a tank (I always fill up at about 1/4, i don't like letting it get below that). I drive mostly highway, i cruise at about 80. All in all, i'm happy.

There are three ways to do things: the right way, the wrong way, and the Max Power way!
Isn't that just the wrong way?
Yeah, but faster!

I've gone 400 and had a gallon and a half left. That was a 410 mile trip. Bought gas 10 miles from my house.
I usually go 300-350 in mixed. I don't like going to low as I already cleaned the fuel pump pick up strainer once.
