How many miles per tank?

[timgco]

How many miles are you getting out of a full tank of gas?

Please list if you have 35", 37", 38" tires

Added a roof rack?

Added a lift?

Altitude you drive at?

Octane used?

THank you.

When you say full tank of gas... do you mean running it down to fumes and your truck dies on the side of the road? Or down to E where there is still a few gallons in reserve? Or, 1/4 tank where normal people usually fill up at. Please explain so I can give you the most accurate answer possible.

DEI, I want to thank you for taking the time to ask for clarification. You are very thorough in your replies.

Full tank of gas: Fill your tank up to where the auto off on the pump shuts off the filling of your tank. Drive your truck until the LOW light shows on your display.

I'm tearing up about 1500 square feet of crypto with each tank full.

I'm considering getting a Wrangler because I'm told you can thrash nearly and acre per tank.

What's the reasoning behind your question?

I get about 280 miles/tank w/ the stock 35's on and 260 with the 37's (until light comes on). I am a lead foot and go 70-80 on the highway. I get about 10.4 MPG. And 9.5 with the 37's!

Then tell "someone" to multiply MPG by 32 gallons, because the question is as dumb as "Hey, how much does it cost you to fill that thing up?".

So, I guess you haven't taken the following into consideration such as:

Tires size, acc's, altitude, driving styles all impact what the manfact's post.

It's really not a dumb questions at all.

Again I'm not after mpg! I'm after mile per tank.

You may have mountain drving part as your commute and really suck gas down, but once you're out of altitude or have city driving or even hwy driving for 100 miles or so. You could get 200 miles to a tank if you're doing nothing but mountain drives. you could get $380 if you're doing all hwy driving below 60mph.

What if you did like you said: take your mpg by 32 gallons based off of what the manufact posts on the window sticker. now go take your truck into tha back country or desert or BFE with your window sticker mpg. You may not have enough fuel to make your next fuel drop or fill station.

Go run Baja or way the hell up in Alaska without enough fuel and see what happens. "But I took 32 gallons X mpg." you can only carry so much extra fuel with you.

That's as much information as I can share at this point. I'm under contract and cannot share any more information.

If you wish to add to this thread, great, if not, thanks anyhow.

Everything you just mentioned is used to determine, which is the basis for my statement.

I average 9.5 mpg; 9.5 x 32 = 304 miles to the tank, so there's my contribution to your thread, as useless as it is.

I have 37", FabTech tie rods and stabilizers, Rubber Duck ucp, Rancho 9000's. My latest mods helped me achieve almost 750 miles per tank!
