What's the highest you've seen this after a fillup? On my very first tank of gas I just stopped it when the gun clicked off, and it read "Range Over 375 miles". Next time I added a few more squirts of gas, and it read "Range over 400 miles".
I was planning a long road trip (about 90% highway) so I got every last drop I could into the tank. It read "Range over 447 miles".
Needless to say, I've averaged about 26 miles per gallon on this tank (cruise set most of the time between 75 and 80 mph). I haven't babied it though, and I'm now at 450 miles left on the tank with "101 miles remaining"!!!!
I'm so impressed and amazed that I can do 500-550 miles on a full tank in this car running almost 80 mph.
Is there a tad bit of wind noise over 60? Sure. The driver's seat isn't as comfortable to me when the base's length is extended. I had to replace the factory batter today (replaced with a Optima Yellow top). Got the windows tinted 35% all the way around with silver metallic and it looks incredible. No harm to NAV/AM/FM/Cell phone reception.
I've had this car 3 months and every day I'm more and more impressed with it. It's after midnight here in Ohio, and I'm thinking about sneaking out to a car wash.
Monday a buddy and I are going to test drive the LS460.

I join you Shawn in being amazed at the mileage of this car. I recently drove from Reno to LA and averaged 28.1 MPG with an avg speed of 68 MPH. Do the math and it comes out to over a 600 mile range!!! and this was fully loaded with gear and two adults. Quite an accomplishment for a two ton + luxury car. I'm paying over $3.30 for 91 octane here in Cali right now so thank goodness for the good mpg.
