Honda's MPG meters are garbage. Seeing 40mpg on the dash will actually equate to 38mpg at the pump. But for me, anywhere from 350 to 380mi (30% and the rest feeder raods)
I disagree. I am usually within .1 MPG between manually calculating and the dash estimate. And if the dash is 'off' mine is wrong in the other direction. Meaning that I will actually have better mileage than my dash indicates.

My best tank was 818km (508 miles) and I was still showing 34 miles to empty. Best MPG was 45MPG and lifetime average 42.7MPG.

I did 700km (435miles) on a tank when driving from Quebec to New Brunswick. I was averaging about 43.3mpg. I had about 2.65gallons left in the tank when I refilled so I could of went for another 50miles.

490 miles on one tank in May. Averaged 42.46 MPG on that tank and used 11.54 gallons. During the summer I typically run it down until I get the low fuel warning so I was consistently getting 460-480 miles per tank. That's going to drop to around 415 miles per tank this winter if I were to run the fuel down to a comparable level.

I usually fill up when the indicator shows about 100 miles left in the tank. At every fill up the indicator shows between 450- 480 miles and I think that is accurate. Longest stretch between fill up is 420 miles for me.
My best mpg during my daily commute ( 40 miles each way ) is 50 mpg and hit that only once from home to work.
I heard that it is not a good idea to run low on fuel. It may damage to fuel pump if there is nothing or very little to pump.

On pure highway driving with cruise set at 75 mph, the max I was able to get by the time the trip computer showed I had 30 miles left on the tank was 490 miles. If I really wanted to push my luck I could have broken 500, but I also didn't want to be left stranded with no fuel.

Since we love to bump 4 year old threads ....

460km / 285.8mi and I gas up every 8-10 days. Do a ton of high way driving and getting around my city takes 30-45 mins

Harrisburg to Bostonā€¦. This is the first tank, at fill up in Connecticut. I make it on a tank and a half without fail. This is from 13MAY22.
I run exclusively Sunoco 91 or Sheetz 93, donā€™t even know what the ā€œECONā€ button does, and am running a K+N CAI on a Ktuner base map. This is a K20C2 MT6.
My brotherā€™s Focus ST can suck it. šŸ˜‚

Honda Civic 10th gen What's your max distance on a full tank? 5DE81877-DB7B-4628-AD8B-0BB3AA6CE39E

For reference: Iā€™m actively filing the tank as I snapped this photo, got 488 miles on the tank Iā€™m replacing, at 41.1 mpg. I took the photo to rub my brothers nose in his Ford mileage.

I actually do my mileage by hand with a Google Sheet when I fill up and it's usually within .5 to .9 of a mile off in both directions so IMO it's fairly accurate if you're resetting every time you fill up.

That's so weird because I'm usually the exact opposite coming from OC. My father lives there so I go often and usually leave around 5am. Vegas is a higher elevation so coming back I'd expect better mileage but maybe you hit more traffic going to SD?
