My goal is to get a consistent 30+ MPG highway from this van. My best measured combined mileage was 26 MPG over 1000 miles traveled on worn out summer tires with the van empty.

I needed tires, so this fuel log is about beginning a few eco mods to see what they give me beyond my previous fuel log. Also I forgot to mention this log was measured with the van loaded under work conditions.
