Default 526 Miles from 1 Tank of Gas.

Ok so I was almost pushing it into the gas station after that. The computer stated average 26.2mpg and 68mph. After almost 8 hours of driving I did not feel sore or very tired. The combination of the Sport Seats and the Sirius radio made for a nice trip.

Default Wow, I don't even come close to that and I've got a 3.2...

I've never managed to average over 18 mpg after 1600 miles. I've also never managed to average 68 mph on the highway either ;-)

Default Yeah thats the secret to the formula

It was a chore but I really wanted to see what the average mpg would be on the flat run of I10 from Louisiana to Florida.

Default I've had some fun down there...

I used to cover the entire Central US for an old job about 5 years ago and would get down there once in a while. I had fun one night at some of the college bars. I though my eyes were going to pop out of my head from looking some of the girls! ;-)

Default I did better today...

roughly about 200 miles roundtrip from Chicago to Milwaukee. Driving around 80-85 most of the way with a few spikes to 90, averaged 24.5 mpg.
