My van, I'm just between 1/2 tank and 3/4 empty and if I recall right, I have 300 or so miles on the trip odo. Granted, I think it still has summer fuel in it (just bought it last week.....surplus van that sat around)
Made an error on my estimate. It was about 275 at just past half tank. Right now, I have about 350 miles and it's just at/past 3/4 empty. So I'm guessing that it "could" make 400-425 if I let get down to the 1/8 of tank area.
