Post How much do u put in the tank 2 fill her up?

Well since we gotta get premium I just wanna kno how much u put in it and how long does a full tank last?From home to work and back daily.

Also state how much gas is where you at! Premium is 3.15 in Detroit!

On my 2nd gen, it takes about $65 to fill up, 18.5 gallons I think. That will last me exactly a week (I fill on Thursdays) at about 350 miles.

From 1/4 tank to full,I spent $45.I'm from Maui,Hawaii and the premium price is $4.16.I think.I don't really care on the price of gas,because no matter how high the price is,I still need to buy gas.I barely drive my GS so I can't really say how long it last me.

gas prices are crazy here, one block you will see 3 gas station having 3.63, 3.64,3.65 then you go 2 blocks down, and another 3 will be at 3.58, 3.59, 3.60...gotta alway be huntin for the 2 cent cheaper gas.

but i just filled up today, my gas gauge is broken so i never know when im empty, i go on miles lol.

i try to fill up every like 250 miles depending on how i drive. today was bout 14 gallons..price i think came out to 60..not sure though, it was my moms credit card so i wasnt payin attention

I fill up every time from 6-8 gals @ 3.43 - 3.49 a gal in NY when I'm at school during the week, I wait on the weekends when I go work for my dad in NJ where gases are about 3.09 - 3.18 for premium. A full tank will last me about a week +/- 2 days, it all depends if i like to put the pedal to the metal or not, so now I drive like a 199 yr old grandma. I don't pass 2k rpm in local traffic so u can imagine how slow i pull from a complete stop lol. and I don't go pass 2.4k rpm on the highway which is about 60mph.

$4.58/Gallon X 18.5Gallons = $84.73
253Miles / 18.5Gallons = 13.7mpg
