question

[Ponczek]

hey guys got a questiong for the guys that got the v6 300.....just wondering how much KM/tank you guys get on avg..... im getting like 390km to a tank just wondering if thats normal or i should be getting more.

Not a V6 guy, but I have heard that the 5.7L can actually get better mileage than the V6 due to the MDS. For whatever that is worth.

well heres how it works...(most of the time at least)


if you have a well maintained v6 300 with stock wheels and tires then you should get great mileage! not sure how much that would be since i dont know anyone who has a v6 300 on stock wheels lol

now if you throw 20s and bigger on the v6 300s then of course the mileage will go down and you will get crappy miles! i have 22s on my 3.5l and get about 200 to 240 miles per tank! which imo sucks but thats what i get for riding on 22s...

now for the v8s...it can all really depend...i have seen 5.7ls on stock wheels that get crappy mileage and some that get way better mileage than the v6 due to the mds and then iv also seen the 5.7ls on 20s and bigger that get just about the same as if it were on stock wheels and then some that lose a few but no big difference though...but i wouldnt know how many miles the hemis average since i have a v6 lol

so to finally answer your question...im not sure what the conversion of kms to miles is but if you have the 2.7l 300 then you should be getting great mileage and the 3.5l should get you decent mileage...like i mentioned...it all just depends on condition of the vehicle along with maintenance and driving styles and patterns along with how city to highway driving and then of course wte you have added aftermarket wise including wheels and tires and etc...


hopefully that answered you question..probably didnt but hey i tried! lol

Something's wrong, buddy. I get ~700KM a tank, and I drive it hard. Granted, I do a lot of highway driving, I don't coast up to speed, I gun it. I am on stock wheel size, but even with my winter tires on right now, I'm still getting ~650 tank, blasting heater, heated seats, and stereo.

Bytheby OP, Polish? =p

At 14.7 mpg you should be getting a min. of 400km/fill (assuming 250 miles/17 gal). At highway cruising, that should improve to at least 25 mpg, which would be 675km/fill.

Even with my MSRT8, I achieve 14-14.5 mpg locally, and about 22 mpg on long highway travel.

i get 13 mpg with my current motor set up

+1.

I get about this on mine, and I drive the same and on the highway most of the time.

My C gets a bit over 21mpg on the interstate @ 80 mph. If I translate that to miles per tank, I guess that would be about 400 miles on a tank. We never let it get below 1/4 tank. At 70 mph, the O/H console says 26 mpg. Knowing it's likely wrong, figure 24 mpg.

You guys are all giving your C level input. This is a V6 conversation - back off!!! =p
