Re: 400 mile tank
I too was thrilled at my first 400 mile tank. Especially after having to refill the '04 Escape V6 every 250 or so. Pretty soon though you will be blowing by 400 with 100+ on the distance to empty meter.
I am at 460 on this tank and am showing 70 or so on the DTE (and it has been getting cold here too). Have to fill up this afternoon though so I won't make 500 miles this tank - good to know I could though.
Keep practicing - it only gets better.

Re: 400 mile tank
Didn't notice the picture before - testing out the distance to empty accuracy? How much gas did it take to refill from there?
Mine usually takes 13.5 or so when I am around 25 miles to empty.
We are having anseasonably warm weather here too - after the cold, wet October we had, we deserve it. Not looking forward to watching the temperature AND the mpg's drop in the next few weeks.
