What kind of gas milage does a Spree tend to get?
I'd find out myself, but the front wheel is jacked up and I fresh out of $$$.

I get 80 to 100 depending on bike and how it's driven (terrain).

i dont know milage(no speedo cable) but mine isnt very good, but i go up a HUGE hill daily, i think downhill kills more on gas because the engine has to keep up with the wheels so that means to even go fast on the hills u gotta gas it. sucks they dont freewheel when you let go of the gas

On a tank? That brings up another (simple) question: How big IS the tank on this monster?

i believe the tank is .55 gallon, and i think that jerry was talking about mpg not mpt

I definitely meant MPG (US Gallon) not per tank.

Does the factory owner's manual state a mpg?

i managed around 60mpg today(my first time out on the scooter).
Jerry,
Do you have any tips to get your kind of mileage? what kind of riding do you do? On what kind of terrain? 90mpg seems really optomistic, but not impossible.

No tips really, I just have two speeds - idle and wide open. Relatively unlevel terrain (central Michigan). Most riding is 50 miles or more per trip. All four machines average the same thing.

Jerry,
Out of curiousity, are there 4 Spree riders, or just 4 Sprees?

Four Sprees (soon to be 5) and two (daily) but sometimes four riders per outing
