Gas Milage??

Is anyone else just getting about 210 miles to a tank full? We live in Albuquerque and I guess the altitude is effecting our gas mileage. Little disappointed, 26 MPG??

i've been getting closer to 365-400 per tankful, depending upon exactly when we fill up. averaging 42.5MPG over the first 5 tanks.

Rick, there are several threads (although not sticky!) in other subforums discussing mpg's, the largest of which is here in the operation and maintenance forum.
Welcome to the site!
