I'm not following your math. Even if you could possibly use every drop of the
tank capacity, with a 23 gallon tank and 400 miles, you get around 17.4 mpg.
400/23 = 17.39
At 250 per tank, you're down to about 11mpg.
Unless I've been doing this wrong for years

Dan, I assumed Clay would fill the tank when the low fuel light came on, so
roughly 20 gallons per fill. 400/20 = 20 mpg on the highway, 250/20 = 12.5
in town. If he refills earlier, less fuel can fit into the tank, so mpg
would be higher.

Mileage is not great. Running a 4.3liter V8. I get 250 in all town driving,
and around 400 or so all highway

I wasn't that interested in a V12. I was thinking more along the lines of an
S500 for the wife.
Stuff like the heated/cooled seats would be a big draw for her. Me, I don't
really care for the froo-froo stuff.
Jaime says the telematics on these are poor, and highly integrated to the point
They are not as robustly built or appointed as the W140. A very korean car
feel to them. I put 10k on mine. They have the 96-05 transmission wicking
problems. Door and trunk assist have failed. There are error codes that lie
about what is really going on. My signals really do work, but
Transmission wicking. Whazzat?

I am really intrigued by the W220 cars after looking at a 2001 S600 a couple of
weeks ago. My biggest concern is that they are frighteningly inexpensive,
which, like the earlier W140 S600 models, makes me fear that they're unreliable
and expensive to repair.
Anyone here have any experience
