...Quando with a guess of 243 miles!
Context clues, people! In the image posted you can see I'm in DS-- drive sport--that can't be good for economy. Also to consider: I live in the city and never once for these 230 hit a freeway or even an uncongested street (but you couldn't have known that).
Closest estimate for gallons: kurtamaxxxguy who guessed 20.5. Our 2008 X5 took 20.429.
(And to those who asked: It's an old picture. The X5 is in Detroit but in honor of Car of the Week, I pulled some things from my library.)

11.3 MPG, on premium...ouch! I thought I was harsh assuming 13 mpg.

It's like driving your car stuck in 2nd gear. but it's so damn cool because it's so fast. The city is just a track. Go down that 30 mph local road with engine revving at 5000 rpm... mmmm... delightful sound and quick reflexes... WATCH OUT LITTLE JOHNNY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD! DODGE! MIGHTY POWER! Mmmmm... delicious...

wow that's pretty... sad.
On another note. This new gig of yours with the car of the week is pretty annoying. Actually it's very annoying.

and those of us that don't know what DS stood for, or that you live in the city.
Guess what the mileage in my vehicle is? I'll give you a hint: Think of how far I have to go to work and then you'll figure it out.
You're giving us the SAT question:
A+B=C What's B?
a)11.3
b)20.5
c)243
d) Not enough info.
I choose D

You guys don't know how to have any fun. All you do is complain all the time. God forbid they should try to do something different once in a while.

Alright, it's time for my turn!
I'll guess 267 miles because this car can't get very good gas mileage, right?
Tell me how I did!
Hey Mike, this is great!
What's next?!
