Oh I also drive moderately, meaning I don't floor it from stoplight to stoplight.

On our most recent trip, ~400 miles roundtrip, we averaged 30 MPG. Not bad for "go-with-the-flow" interstate speeds with a 19 yr old car that has 189k miles with snow tires. (I just took them off today.)
Per our 1987 Camry owner's manual, the gas tank holds 15.9 gallons. 15.9 gal x 30 MPG = 477 miles per tank - MPT.
Hope this helps,
