Not bad for a big V8 that's already gone 60 miles on this tank. We did the math, the car has a range of about 660 miles on the highway.

has a range of about 660 miles on the highway.

1) How big is the tank?

2) What kind of car is it?

Nice. My EPA range is 480ish. I could stretch that to 530 if I go by my best recorded highway.

That's not counting topping off.

Nice. We struggle to get over 300 miles on a single tank.

Part of that is because our car's gas mileage is average at best, and part of is is because the gas tank is about the size of a shot glass.

Looks like a German product. Doesn't look at fancy as an Audi, so I'm guessing VW phaeton or jetta

Oh Damn, haha. Let's just say German automobiles are not my forte. I do hope my future stable consists of a nice S8 though
