I had 460 miles week before last. I had my foot in it a couple times, but the majority was interstate at 75 mph. The pump allowed me to fill 17.7 gallons before shut off. I was nervous. A long highway trip with a conservative speed of 70mph and no WOT at all, and 512 miles on a tank becomes very possible. I imagine the longevity of the fuel pump would be greatly decreased doing this often, though. It likes its lube.

I'm actually confident under the right conditions and carefully driven, the car get ~500 miles from completely full to bone dry. My dad's I35 has seen 480 on a couple tanks before.
