    Default 201.5 miles on a tank



    The last bar on the fuel gauge disappeared. "Feed Me" light had been on for thirty miles. I could only get 5.4 gallons in.

    ..... I think!!

    Exactly how worried were you about the "Pedestrian possibilities" of this exercise?

    It wasn't exactly planned. I chose to go to a gas station a couple miles closer than my normal station. When a gust of wind hit me,I was sure I was going to be pushing. I don't want to try it again.

    That's a good ballpark. I can go 215 on my 1330, but it's a bit scary after that. And, I would be in trouble if I had to "hike" for gas. Can't walk without assist for much more than 20 ft.

    I am getting higher mpg with each tank on my 2015 RT. Started at 36 mpg. Now up to 39 mpg.
