1. Gas tank size 17 gallons
2. 26 mpg "highway only"
3. That's 442 miles per tank of gas
4. Distance 235.33 one way :profile says Edwardsville:
5. Total 470.66 miles total
6. Claimed 34 mpg "1 tank of gas round trip"
7. That would put you at 578 miles per gas tank

Dammit!!!! I need to trade in the brand new civic I just bought my wife for a 7 to 8 year old v6 TL...
