This is the first long trip (~1100 mile one way) I've taken with my 328d and color me completely impressed!
Cruising all day at~75MPH it'll get 50mpg with no problem. Best tank I got was my last tank, 52.7mpg calculated (53.3mpg was what the dash computer said) and the fuel light didn't come on until ~790 miles into the tank. I could have easily squeaked out 840 miles but alas, I was at the end of my trip.
Here was my route. A Petro-Canada station on Rt 11 in Ontario, Canada to a Sheetz station in Raleigh, NC. For sure it helped that a good bit of my route was not interstate, but still I never could have done even close to that with my Golf...
And the aftermath on the car (not seen: immense amounts of dust from a gravel road on the Canada side of my trip):
