I average 360KMs to half tank indicated... not bad for intake/exhaust, and it'll go back up with the 50% UDP :D

Way to go man, another example of why the Focus just makes sense :)

Ok, do I have a lead foot or what?! Is it the fact I have an automatic? New, not fully broken in engine? (any other excuses possible?) Why am I not getting more than 400km to a tank?! And I average around 300 with city use.

I would say heavy foot.

I can drive to Toronto and get 525 Km tank before the light comes on driving 130-150Km/hr

I drive 120Km/hr, I can get over 100km's more. :o

Damnit. Well I do move the car alot each day. I just started one class per day a few days ago, so it shouldn't be like before when I had two classes per day, but the car doesn't get continuous use, which usually equals better mileage. Does that still justify it though?

No tach? What is it an automatic SPI or one of those Quebec only stripped down ZX3's with a SPI?

I'm finding I'm getting just over 600 kms to a tank, and I have a 5 speed Zetec and no speed controls, but then again I'm doing 75% of all my driving on the highway using mid grade gas.

to all those who get great gas milage, are you mostly on the freeway? i find it impossible to get more than 500km to the tank in "ALL" downtown toronto driving. especially with all these newly added traffic lights and crosswalks, we gotta be stoping like every 1-2 mins of driving.

360KMs to half a tank this weekend. That's the best out of our trip to Toronto and back (the trip back was the best for mileage).

The only time I ever saw that many kilometres at half a tank of gas is when I forgot to reset the trip odometer after the first tank of gas. :( :lol:
