Haven't gotten to changing gear ratio's yet (no money)

But I have an update:

Just had a long highway run, heavy but small load so I was able to keep it covered.
Light traffic, 5-6 lanes so I could go even slower than usual (45 instead of 50)

In about 150 miles I averaged 28.5 miles per gallon, way above my original goal.

So the other day we both returned home at the same time again, only now the weather is warm, sunny, with no wind. And I yell to him: You took the car? In this weather?!?
