Hey guys! Don't know if you've done this recently but how much gas mileage are you getting out of your cars?
I don't know if it's the hot weather or something but for a relatively small car (4 door sedan) and only 130hp i feel like I'm not getting good gas mileage.
The last two times I did a check...I was getting about 475 KM on a full tank (well there was still about 1/6 to 1/8 left so maybe round it up to 500 KM on a full tank).
What are you guys getting on a full tank?
Be the change you want to see in this world.
