Broke three personal bests today...

676 miles on one tank
33.8 mpg on one tank
20.004 gallons in one fill

Man, I love my car.

This tank was a run from Buffalo to Toronto, Montreal and then down the Northway towards Albany.

I was not happy. In the middle of no where and no diesel. I would have chickened out earlier given my choice.

Impressive figures

I doubt I would ever try that hard , that said running too low on fuel shortens the lifespan of your fuel pump as well .
I hit around 820 kilometers in one tank as my personal best , however I drove it a bit more having warning came on .
I would like to drive a bluetec car as well

After filling it up , I do occasionally see 4 digits as well
However, in real world I never catch these numbers but trying to catch these numbers could end up in a bad way lol.
80 liters gas tank same as E350 and BLUETECs .Normally, I hit the station with 700-730 kilometers covered and 70ish used up fuel .

What was the percent highway and highway speeds? Trying to reconcile the 40 mpg reports and this result.

Couldn't a 2012+ 2wd E350 DI engine could come close to this mileage on the highway?
