Most mileage on your new vehicle.

I put nearly 14K on my new F150 last year in about 3 months. Felt guilty, so its been sitting for the past 9 months. I feel better now

 

Which motor? 6.2 per chance?

 

Looks like a lot of you guys drive alot!
Anything you guys wish your car/trucks had differently?

I really wished the offered larger gas tanks as optional (I think porsche might do for the 911) Going to the gas station all the time gets annoying, especially in the winter.

 

I bought a 2016 F-150 with the FX4 package which included extended range fuel tank. It's pretty sweet. Took a little getting used to seeing crazy numbers when I fuel up though...

Bought my car in November with 22K on it. Currently sitting at 39K.

I do about 1100 miles a week...probably about to go up some.

 

I filled up the GTI last night as it was near the fuel gauge red limiter and it took only 9.8 gallons [emoji53]

Yeah, I have the MK7 Golf which has the same gas tank and the most I ever got in there was a little over 10 gal. Luckly I get better gas mileage, but I can imagine what is the range on a Golf GTI or Golf R

 

Most of my fuel goes down to remote starting, and then because of hitting the go pedal harder than I should. So I can't have a true estimate yet. Some people get 30+ on their GTI

I used to work on Whitecourt a good bit in the late 90s.

 

I change it whenever the oil monitor says too. I have had a couple of box where I have done to oil changes in one month

 

No I have the smaller engine. My business partner has the larger engine though. We got different trucks to see what kind of mileage each would do over the course of the year. So far the 6.2 has actually done a little bit better.

 

My 2015 Transit Connect is at 110k. Averaging almost 50k a year. Bought it with 10k in January 2016.

 

That's the problem with compact cars versus mid size cars if they're just pulling commuter duty. I drive an Altima. The fuel economy ratings for the Altima (2.5L I4), Sentra, and Versa are virtually identical. Altima has an 18 gallon tank, Sentra has a 13.2 gallon tank, Versa has a 10.8 gallon tank. I had a 2010 Versa. I was pushing my luck if I went 300 miles on a tank. My Altima can easily go well over 500 on a tank.

 

Yeah, my truck is loaded but I wish I could get a larger tank. I can get about 500 miles on a tank highway, but I have to fill up multiple times a day sometimes.

 

Several of the 1984/85 300SD's I used to have, had an extra fuel tank in the trunk. I had them removed, so I could put luggage in the trunk.

 

My Jeeps just coming up on 4 years old. 25k on it. Take the old, but still mint 01 4Runner we’ve had since new back n forth to the airport. Helps when you work from home though . Jeep sat pretty much idle for 4 months with exception of driving it once and a while to gets things circulated and move the flat spots on tires. I think I need to buy a sports sedan like a c63 or m5. Roads here where I live are too good not to have a car for function and fun. Or I’m thinking of upgrading the wife to the svr f pace so I can use it.

 

I love this discussion. 40+ MPG. Sometimes $25 a month for fuel. Too much fun to drive. Extremely affordable.

 

Well, I’ve had this truck for 20 months and just rolled 100k. And I’m picking up my new truck Tuesday.

 

I’ve never seen a 56 mph speed limit.
