MS3 becoming a gas guzzler?

I've been getting about 350+ or so a tank during normal driving, however, I filled up in Long Island last night and only used a 1/4 of a tank getting back up to CT. Car is like driving a damned automatic with 6 gear. Just leave it and drive. The trip computer said I'm up to 22.5 avg. We all know it's off, but that's what it registered since buying it 2 weeks ago.
 
its not all that strange that there is so much variability on here, depending on where and how you drive, the gas mileage will certainly vary. In a regular week I do only city driving and get ~20-25 mpg, depending on how pissed I am after leaving work haha. Id im on the highway I have gotten 30mpg on a regular basis
 
This weekend I will be driving from Atlanta to Charlotte which is around 250 mi. I'll reset all my banks and see how good efficently I can get there keeping it around 70-80 in 6th gear.
 
sometimes i well dotn care for the speed limit. or its ealry in the mornign i cruise to work. soemtimes around 55. and the car will show betwen like 40-50 mpg fpr current ussage! and well other times like 75 i get around 29-32 so gas aint bad!

and cruise help!
i average around 24.5 miles per tank. and my computers average has been pretty close. maybee dioffrences of 1/10ths but not 2 or so mpg.

You wanna talk gas guzzler? Still getting my Haltech dialed in, but when your AFRS are constantly in the 11-12 range, I get about 200Km (~150mi?) to a tank...

HAHAHAH dude, I just saw you in your car on that back road in Tuscany on Saturday. I was the idiot on the blue Kawi 636 waiting for you to go through the puddle. You car looked and sounded real nice.

LOL ya man that puddle sucks! You have some nice toys man. My parent's house is down i nthe Village there, and I can't drive down 12 mile coulee with my car anymore... The detour sucks, but i'd rather not make my car rattle anymore than it does.

That puddle doesn't suck as bad as 12 mile. That road is horrendous! I do hear they are going to completely redo that road very soon though.

Where'd you hear that from? There's been a petition for so long but they've never done anything cause the MD owns half and the City owns half...
 
I use to get about 22MPG on average with city like driving. I put a CAI on and I'm getting about 24MPG on the same amount of driving. Equates to 300miles to the tank about.
