No , you should be able to do better than that - I get about 240 -260 before the light comes on - if I let it get that empty.

What have you done as far as maintenance in the last year or so?

man i am glad i am not the only one getting that kind of mileage. 9 around town, much better at 70 on freeway, usually fill up at 210-220 miles.
I am almost positive if i put that v10 in, it'll get better
