Farthest you've gone in a tank

WreckerX5d · 12-29-2016, 07:54 PM

Decided to not fill up this morning, and go to work instead (100mi round trip). Ended up with my PR of 509miles in a single tank. This was after a 350mi drive from VA, and multiple short runs carrying 300lbs of stuff.

shnaggs · 12-29-2016, 07:55 PM

I think 530 was my max with like 30mi left.

Mark M · 12-29-2016, 08:07 PM

Did 545 miles back in Nov

Persian Whisperjet · 12-29-2016, 08:11 PM

Farthest on one tank is 669.3 miles and 16.26 gals (post-deletes). Click on Fuelly banner for more details.

Can't say I've gone anywhere in a tank....friend of mine has put some mileage on in military deployment

floydarogers · 12-29-2016, 09:27 PM

I know I've gone 2*280 (560) miles on a single tank; could have gone another 50-60 miles on it. Think I went 605 miles on a trip couple years ago; I90 from Seattle to Butte.

DieselOG · 12-30-2016, 03:31 AM

I got 570ish on my second tank, flew to D.C. to pick it up and drove home so all freeway at 80mph.

Whitbread · 12-30-2016, 03:55 AM

My last was 632 miles with 16.45 gallons in. 90% highway driving in California at 65-80mph.

Puerto Rican 335d · 12-30-2016, 07:41 AM

Just did 165 miles round trip here in Puerto Rico (the island is not as flat as you guys have in the states , there are some hills , downhill's and barely flat areas and heavy traffic) on a quarter of a tank at speeds no lower than 75 mph and a few bursts of 120-130 mph. That's with the AArodriguez EGR race pipe now installed.

demon · 12-30-2016, 08:43 AM

Farthest "IN A TANK"? around the parking lot. A friend worked his way through college as a night guard in a tank plant......

Khedge · 12-30-2016, 10:23 AM

The farthest I have been in a tank is 554. That was a trip from Texas to Florida.

GaryE30 · 12-30-2016, 01:10 PM

606.80 miles here pre-tune from DC to SC down I-95 with 16.184 gallons for 37.49 mpg tank. Without a CBU cleaning.

Still driving this thing without a CBU cleaning, but I'm thinking it will be time soon.

335dFan · 12-30-2016, 02:51 PM

27 August 2013, 611.8 miles, 15.29 gallons, 40.013 mpg, 24,954 on the odometer, Woodhull IL to New Springfield, OH. Doubt the old steed would go that far on a tank now at 64,153 miles.

GottWhat · 12-30-2016, 02:56 PM

728 miles...in a VW TDI lol

It was about 68F in the morning when I left, reaching the mid-80s during the day, and the day ended in the mid-80s. Woodhull elevation was 810 ft above sea level. The day ended at 1,204 ft elevation. Mostly a flat trip.

32valves · 12-30-2016, 05:45 PM

450 is mine but my driving style is probably different.

Heck, in November of 2013 I got 441.4 miles on a tank that included 1:40 hrs/mins at the Summit Point Raceway track during an HPDE.

With the JBD set at 100%.

32valves · 12-30-2016, 06:33 PM

maybe my car is not 100% but it does run low 12's all day long...

Well, you certainly have me there. I'm pretty sure mine would struggle to get under 13 seconds. Having said that I have never recorded a 0-60 or 1/4-mile. I can say that on the Shenandoah Circuit of Summit Point Raceway, being the mediocre track driver that I am, if I came out of turn in front of somebody, M car or otherwise, nobody was going to pass me before the next corner unless I waved them by. Which I always did when possible so I didn't hold them up.

But I certainly enjoy climbing up the grades in the Sierras and similar and leaving others in the rear-view mirror. That I really like. Regardless of the mpg.
