I fill mine to the brim every week, need to 'cos of the miles I cover - cost 
is usually GBP60 (approx US$100) plus or minus a few quid.

Sometimes when I leave the station the gauge doesn't read full but by the 
time I'm a couple of miles down the road it does. After what seems to be 
only a few miles later it's down to 1/2 a tank.....

Regards,
