Sorry to go off topic, but what bulbs are those in your sig pic, Dr. Roy?

Hrm.... I'd beg to differ. My 02 Max has had more good-working parts replaced with better good-working parts than most of the Max's on the .org. My folder of service repairs, parts orders, etc got so big that I had to create a second folder for them.

As far as the gas milage... I'd love to hit 400. I've hit 392 a few times when I was on the highway driving 50-60 MPH in traffic for 6 hours (hurricanes, etc). But usually I'm around the 300-325 mark for a tank. VQ35 = Small Displacement version of a gas guzzler!!

The projector is a retrofit from an acura MDX w/ 8000k hid d2s bulbs, the parking light is a 5 LED bulb i made up to match the new LEDs i put the halo's.

I travel from Landover, MD to Brooklyn, NY - a total of 233 miles - every week and only use half a tank, swear to G*D. I have been doing this since 2003 with my Max. What I do is I try to keep my RPM at or below 4000 even when I am cruising at 90-100mph. at 80mph in 4th gear I am usually at 4000 so I kick in 5th to take it up to 90-1000 and hold the revs below 4000. I have only gotten one ticket so far.

meant to say 90-100

i find that if i dont do city driving.. and arent extremely agressive.. for every hash mark i can achieve ~100 miles.. so i've hit 400 once.. like when i first got my car when i commuted all over MA.. but now that i live in boston i RARELY ever see it over 300 since i work/drive int he city

Except no one can get 18.5 gallons out of the tank. My car will not function with less than one gallon left. The most anyone has ever reported is a 18 gallon fill up and most can't go past 17.5.


I once got about 435 miles on about 17 gallons of that awesome New Jersey Sunoco 94 gas.


I commonly get 350+ per tank for every day driving. However my commute to work is 20 miles each way and traffic runs in the 65-75mph range.
