The primary way to get good fuel economy is keep your foot out the radiator.
My gas mileage is not good, around 21-22 mpg. The reason is most my driving is short distance, around 5 miles, and on city streets.

I did a little experiment yesterday. When my fuel meter hit 4 bars, I reset my trip odometer. Looks like each of those last 4 bars = 1/4 gallon. hehehe
By the time I traveled about 23 miles, the last 4 bars disappeared. leaving me with the 3 gallons left in the tank when there are no bars showing.

I just checked in my 05 ... I filled up at 4 bars and it took almost exactly 10 gallons. They are probably each a little different, but there was way more gas in my car than I expected for 4 bars.

Hey Green Tea.
Like the others said great Pictures. I'm a SJSU alumni ALSO!. graduated in 1997!. Like the picture with the San Jose/SJSU Library in the Background. I always thought it was cool looking building. What parking garage is the car parked in? Was it from one of the apartment buildings?

The other picture was taken in the 7th street garage. Man, I would love to take some pics at the new spartan village complex
