GAS CONSUMPTION
DOES ANY ONE KNOW HOW MANY MILES U CAN DRIVE ON A FULL TANK IN A 2003 HEMI...
I'M DEBATING ON DRIVING TO FLORIDA OR NOT... FROM CALIFORNIA...
THE TOTAL DISTANCE ONE WAY IS 2,100 MILES...

RE: GAS CONSUMPTION
I would guess all highway with a std. 26gal tank, appx. 370-400miles to a tank.. Which means if you drive 4200 miles total, you would have to fill up appx11 1/2 times. Usually when you get gas you're not all the way empty, so maybe you would have to fill up 15 times or so.. But think about it, you probably put about 20-22 gal in on fill up (I do anyway) @ a national avg. of about 2.50/gal ... 2.5 times 22 = $55 .. $55 15 times = $825.00 in gas alone.

Is that doable.?
