Yikes!
On pure highway driving I can just make it the 405 miles from JC to Bridgeport, OH on one tank of gas in my E46 wagon. (OH is the low tax state at 20 cents/gallon less than PA. WV is 3 cents/gallon less than OH, but the tiny sliver of WV between PA and OH has higher than normal prices, so it is still more cost effective to wait to OH if possible).
Normal mixed city / highway driving (but mostly city) around here gives me 275-325 miles on a tank.
And this is on a car that had a gas guzzler tax when new.
