Very impressive! One sure advantage fronttrack has over Quattro is a 0.5 gallon larger fuel tank, but 33mpg doesn't hurt either.

Most mine ever got was 338 miles @ 23.2mpg, obviously a large mix of city with some highway. Otherwise I fill up by the time the needle points to the last white tick, ~ 12 gallons. The last tank was 305 miles @ 30.1mpg though :)

9.951 gallons took me 290 miles yesterday into today - mostly highway

~29mpg


Oh and congratulations for entering the 200,000 mile point!

Most I ever seen was 420 miles on the highway. That was 65 mph cruising.

I've never drove more than 380 miles straight. from cincinnati to Johnstown Pa, i do that on less than 3/4 tank. so i guess i could make it 430 miles est.

Fill up your tank, reset your trip computer. When you run out of gas fill up, divide the miles you went on the last tank by the gallons of gas you put in. That'll give you your MPG.

Is that what you mean?

filled my tank in my 1.9tdi A4 and got 59.2miles per gallon and when we drove from Blackburn, Lancashire United Kingdom to Portsmouth, United Kingdom for Goodwood Festival of speed this year and got approx 280 to a quarter of a tank at a steady 70 miles per hour usually between 36-38 for town journeys so it costs about £80 a month on just normal to work and home journeys.

I went just under 400 miles on a tank, that was driving from NY to TN. If I was just cruising I probably could have gotten more, but I drive kind of aggressively.
