I never knew California gas prices varied that much from the rest of the country. Here in the midwest, you don`t have to drive far to find a fuel station. While the prices may be higher in some towns, it's usually not more than 10-15 cents.
My daily driver has a 36 gallon tank. I can get over 20 mpg in the spring and fall months as long as I keep my foot out of it and don't idle a bunch. My best trip mileage has been 24.5 average. I used to try to see how far I can make it. I've been over 600 miles a number of times, but never tried to push the 700 mile mark, even though I`m sure I could.
