Cruising range after fill-up
I am curious what the avg cruising range post fill-up from folks here. My GX has been getting better over the years. Now I am getting about 405 miles in summer and 380 miles in winter. My fill-up is normally around 19 or 20 gallons. So I figure the total range is like 430 miles till last drop of gas.
I run 38 psi year around.

I have stock tire R18, I recently put on LTX defender. With the new tires, I feel that the lean issue is almost gone.
It is absolutely true, we are not spirited drivers and we very seldom go into city traffic, I would say 80% is highway. We never tow.
The overall mpg (not after fill up) is edging up around 19.3 lately after diff and tranny drain and fill. Btw, It could be very well that am getting older and slower,

I have stock size LTX, drive mostly highway and average 17-18 mpg. My average speed over a tank of fuel is typically about 35 mph, with a displayed "cruising range" after fill up consistently averaging between 355 and 365. My display to empty versus trip milage driven typically appears accurate.
The only time I have ever had a displayed cruising range of 400+ was in the middle of a cross country trip with no traffic and had the cruise set at 75 for hours and then refueled. 400 miles is not a dependable real life range for this vehicle.
