In City driving, mostly 2-5 mile drives majority of the time - i get about 300 or so.

Oops, most miles to a tank was 420 95-5 Wisconsin x-way driving.
Have you ever used a fuel additive and did it improve your fuel economy ?
Slight off topic, but I'm a BP man myself, but last time I had to use Shell fuels, and I actually got 330 city miles to the tank ! I usually struggle to get 300 the way I drive. This is quite interesting, anybody else get a freakish tank of gas from switching brands ??

I can't believe the numbers you guys are getting... I can barely break 320 on a tank of gas. I've never got any better. Maybe its the garbage gas we get out here... I do notice that my mpg goes up if I drive around 70 to 80 mph...

light comes on with at least 3 gallons in there..that means you get around 28MPH driving in the city... that is unbelievable...actually i dont believe it
I think i got you all beat, well except soundmike.
I got 430miles on the tank with 70miles left on DTE, and get this, doing an average of 90mph from North Carolina to NYC.
I always get about 390 all city. I get 420miles when it's mixed driving. Never gotten worst than these.

815km (506miles) is the most I have been able to get out of one tank on my 2K2. This was 95% highway miles with the cruise control set at about 115km/h (71mph).
Purely by observation on my max (i.e. not scientific data), 90km/h (55mph) is the speed at which it seems to obtain it’s peak gas mileage. I have found that mileage goes down slightly as you increase speed up to about 115km/h, and at speeds faster than this it drops considerably. I have also found that other things that factor heavily into the mileage you can get are wind speed / direction, and the weather conditions (warmer seems to be better). I have not noticed a big difference with the A/C on or off as others have indicated.
I’d be willing to bet that with a full, topped up tank of gas, on a long trip with good weather conditions, setting the cruise at about 90km/h and driving until the max was running on fumes, I could get close to 600 miles on tank. However, I have yet to prove this theory as I have considerable trouble keeping my speed this low.

also notice the mileage counter in the dash is 3mpg high.

your numbers are more believable

to you cause it's hard for me to go over the 360 barrier(75%highway)
