Not sure we have the same term for "moderately hard." I have only gotten 280 from an entire tank (below empty) twice, and that was only because I spent the entire tank cruising at highway speeds. With daily driving to and from work with "moderately hard" driving, I get 240 about every tank.

I get 18-22 mpg depending on how far I push the accelator down during the tank of gas

i gun it pretty much everytime i drive it but in jacksonville everywhere you go is about 10-20 miles away and the majority of my time is spent idling away in 5th gear at 50-70 MPH

I notice that i use the most gas when i'm on a bridge and pulling hard in 5th gear

I'm also pretty sure that when i say 'moderately hard' it would probably mean 'pussyfoot' to you considering your posts
