I'd say I average 20-24mpg, and that's a mix between city and highway driving. If i don't drive spirited I can manage 235-250 miles out of a tank.

The most I got was 26 mpg...not really sure how I accomplished that. I average about 18-20 mpg.

Right around 20. Usually around 240 miles to a tank. The short range is brutal..

That's probably the worst. But if I go somewhere far, like I went camping up north this summer into the boonies.... I filled my tank at the last gas station that carried 94, and I also took an 8 gallon jerry can full of 94, which I definitely needed to use on the return trip

So your entire trunk filled with extra gas? Pretty much my only other real gripe with the X

No the trunk was all filled with camping gear! I have the spare tire well available for more room as the tire is home. Jerry can sat on the floor behind the passenger front seat. Fit everything needed for a week, including a big cooler and tiki torches, all in the trunk and back seat area!

Yeah, that's the toughest thing for me. The gas mileage is what I expected, 20- 22mpg. I usually fill up around 200 miles to a tank because I don't want to accidentally go lean on a low tank.

lol yeah, unless you have 2-3 people with you, it's easy enough to make the back seat and trunk work. I just REALLY wish the back seats folded down for skis/longer items. Nothing a roof rack and skybox can't fix I suppose.

Yeah... I hardly ever use my trunk.
My groceries usually fit on the front passenger seat and floorboard.

If my girlfriend came with me, the groceries could go in the back seat.

24 city in northern VA on 93 octane. 29 hwy! I swear my EVO is great on gas, but 93 is significantly more expensive than lower octane fuels.

~17 mpg before light turns on. I've squeezed 190+ out of it before. Commute consists of 8 miles of city, 17 miles on the freeway. Assuming I leave before traffic starts, car reads 20-21 mpg. In traffic it reads 17-18 mpg.

I rarely get over 18mpg or so on my daily commute to work. Half rural slow-way (25-45mph with a light or two) and half high way (80mph). I do have a roof-rack which doesn't help. I recently sold my corvette (which typically did a hair better... but not much) and bought a 2018 Raptor. The raptor doesn't exactly do better than the Evo... but holy ****... 36gal gas tank is awesome. I can't remember the last time I was at the gas station. Highway trips are 600+ miles on a tank.
