It can happen. on good days its possible to streach out to 400 miles, But thats a realy good day.

We usualy fill around 300 miles

No, on a good day it's possible to stretch out to 500 miles.

My first tank gave me 33.14 mpg, but I don't know what gas the dealer filled it with. Since then I have been getting 36-39 mpg. BP gasoline has been the best mpg for me so far.

Wait until it's broken in (about 3000 miles). It just gets better. I typically get 350-380 miles out of a tank, but I run the same driving loop every day, and run mine down to .3-.4 gallons left. Some don't like to run it that low. I also have an 83 mile round trip to work every day, so I fill up about every 4 days.
