I always fill up around the 1/4 tank level. Typically put 11-something gallons in after racking up a bit over 300 miles. Don't really pay attention to the Distance to Empty level unless I'm getting low on fuel.
Wife's Camry Hybrid can get ~600 miles per tank.

600 miles/tank is impressive, but it is a hybrid. I wonder how much better the CX-5 would be if was also a hybrid.
I always top off whenever I'm near my gas station, but today I was down to "10 miles before empty". It's good to know my lil CUV can stay away from the station for awhile if needed (thumb)
My CX-5 often gets 425-470 miles before filling. Best ever is 507 miles. Even then it only took 13.5 gallons (of 15.3 capacity) so I probably had another hour of driving or over 60 miles left before I started sucking air. Pretty good for an AWD SUV. Sometimes I'm forced to fill up with only 300 miles or so because I know I won't be near my preferred station for some distance.
All my fill-ups are available by clicking on my fuelly banner. I haven't been driving it much lately. Now that the weather is warmer and drier I put more miles on my motorcycles.

Must be nice. I'm getting a super 22 mpg out of mine.
Seems quite low. Do you think it's the vehicle or the driver?
A lot of possible variables assuming everything is fine with vehicle.
Elevation, lots of hills, city driving, quick off line starts? What do you get with a fixed cruise control setting of 60-65?
I'm getting about 330-345 miles to the tank with my 2.5 Touring AWD.... 70% highway driven and I'm trying to drive sensible to get better mileage. Only 4k miles on it so hoping this will improve. Although not expecting much better since I have to factor the AWD.

Usually have to get gas around 350-375 miles though the display on full tank is usually 400+. Drive mostly highway also but then again, it's the 2.5 AWD model.

Had 610 miles today after filling up, went to 612, thought i'd taken a photo when parked of it at 611 miles, but no picture on phone (pissed), but i've posted over 65 mpg on the forum so 12 x that is 780 potentially.

I can't come close to what the diesel CX-5 is possible of, but the furthest I've went on a tank is 661 miles
That's really good! How much did it take before the pump shut off on the next fill?

16.19 and 16.65 gallons, I've hit 661.8 and 661.0 for each. I top off my car when I fill up.
Nothing like putting 16.65 gallons in a 14.5 gallon tank
How far past 0mi range indicated do you drive?

I guess I have no idea how much fuel one squeeze in there but wouldn't want to cause issues with the evap emissions system
According to owners manual FWD is 14.8 Gallons & AWD can take 15.3 gallons
