How many miles do you get out of your galant's (2000-2003 models) when your tank if filled all the way? How many gallons can your tank hold?

Seems my car just holds 10 gallons and does 150 miles before it gets near to E. If this isn't normal, can anyone tell me why i'm getting these results?

Thanks

How many miles per gallon (not miles per tank) are you actually getting?

my 2001 ES V6 can drink up to 14 gallons -
but I usually fill up when it's 'only' 12.xx gall - which take me around 250-260 miles

I've got a 2002 Galant DE with the 2.4 and I recently installed a new timing belt, water pump, spark plugs (NGK iridiums), Autolite pro plug wires, K&N air filter and had the transmission fluid changed and my commuting MPG which is all Atlanta, GA suburbs is averaging 26 mpg w/o the A/C on. Before I had all that work done it was getting 23-24 with the same type driving. I drive conservatively though. Obviously, I am very happy with 26 compared to what others are getting. :-)
