Well, do you drive a 250 or 350? What's your driving style like? What has the temperature been? Do you do mostly city or highway driving? What's the geography like in your area?

Lot's of things to consider.

I think you add have a 450-500 and a 500+ range.

If you fill up the tank to the max you would be able to get 450+. I can get 420 easy on my 250.
