Actually my mileage does very, I get close to 12 when towing. With my back and sciatica issues I keep my daily driving to under 300mi. if I can. But I can see the need for more reserve in many cases and I respect that, if fact I envy those that can go long distances like I used to. I remember not that long ago when I did a truck route about once a month that was 7 hours each way with a loading stop in the middle. Had to fudge the log on that one. 
But alas, no more.
