Hey I get horrible gas mileage, but that's all due to my right hand. That power is just addictive.

I usually get around 160-170 miles on a tank as long as I'm being "reasonable" with the throttle.  Just did GMan Bully and Intakes, so now we'll see how I do.

My reserve light starts flashing around 140 miles, this with the power commander set at max output.
