i have a ES CVT and get 19-22 city and 22-27 highway. strange thing is if i get it up to 29 or 30mpg itll stay that way whether i go from city to highway or vice versa. i filled it up today and it said i had 470 miles.

I have an 08 ES 5-speed. I consistently get over 400 miles per tank (and I usually fill up when the alarm goes off) and when I fill it I usually don't have to put in more than 13.5 gal. Last week I went nearly 500 miles on the tank, and I drive on the highway between 65-75 mph..with some city driving mixed in. I ALWAYS use cruise control...even in the city, so that might help out too. So far I've got about 2700 miles on the car.

Wow. almost 500 miles on one tank? I just dont think that is going to happen in my GTS haha...the best tank I've got so far is 360 but I filled up right after the indicator came on...filled up with 13.07 gallons ...and that was a 90% highway tankOriginally Posted by 2008BMLES

Price sucks ? in canada here it's 1.35/liter (about 5.10/gallon) so yeah that sucks.
Seems it's gonna be near 1.70 next year :S

pfft... you have light traffic... I'm currently working on my most miles for a tank of gas (sitting at ~270 on this tank and will have to refuel this weekend), and have yet to break 300 miles on a tank. So far, my best mileage on a tank has been ~22MPG.Originally Posted by chcougar1

i drove 45 miles after the 1st warning and everything was gravy. Yeah so i pumpped 13 gallons and it gave me 450 miles. i drove to the beach and back so it was mostly highway. Not bad though...
