I shake my head at the gas gauge too. It's those last dots that go fastest. Or is it the first couple last longer?

Agreed,first few dots last very long,after that anything near half tanks,it drop very fast,i think our tanks should be big on top,small at the bottom.

I actually try to check the dots and I seem to get 20-25 miles per dot.. with the occasional being less.

Just got back from a trip to North Carolina and I got 27.4 on one tank running 70-75 with AC most of the trip. Might attribute some of that to going downhill in the mountains though.

Yep. So Cal here and we drive 80MPH....get constant 20.5MPG. I should drive like a grandma @ 65MPH, but if I drive that speeds on the 5 or 22 freeway, someone will end up killing me.

22-24 for over 70? no way! I drive 75-80 about 95% of the way into work and I typically average 26-27 MPG on the way there. I never really get under 25 MPG even on the way back in the mornings when I deal with a bit more traffic (and thus average lower speed).

Perhaps it's just one car vs. another one... or the way it was broken it... the way it's driven, the roads... etc.
