Hi Steve:
My fuel gauge is 'relatively' linear, in that I get ~50 mi. per 1/4 tank, or
200 mi. between 'fill ups', which I routinely do at 200 miles. Requires
approx. 8 gallons to fill, of a tank which has a capacity of slightly over 11
gallons. As a result, I average about 25 mpg, consistently. (I have gotten
over 30 mpg, highway, which I rarely have a chance to do.) My driving is
pretty consistent, 'city/highway' combination.

p.s. I expect that your '280 miles to the tank' was was in 'highway' type
driving.
