My 8 gets better mileage than my Explorer, and identical mileage to my ex's Forester. It's more fun than both cars put together.

I'm happy with it.

Is the tank in the Series II bigger? Cause I get around 260 miles per tank and I drive mostly city. I fill it up and then drive til my gas light comes on, and then repeat.

I did read somewhere here that one of the changes involved a larger gas-tank capacity, 2 additional gallons I think
