I finally got a 500+ mile fill-up in my Mustang today. And set a new commuting MPG record. I may have cheated a little yesterday afternoon by taking the "extra long way home" to ensure a 500+ mile...

I drove a '67 Ford Bronco from 1984 until 1996. 3 on the tree. Averaged about 10 MPG. I miss it a little more than my tonsils. It was fun to drive. :thumbup:

37 is about where my Mustang would get its best MPG. On a track like Indy, I could probably average over 60 MPG. My bladder capacity would lower my average. :)

I agree. A single fill-up over 33 MPG may be due to exceptional circumstances; or it may be due to a short fill. It doesn't establish a trend.

Colder temperatures and cold-weather fuel are here. We've been having overnight lows in the 20's and 30's in northern Arizona. My last two fills in my Mustang barely broke 32 MPG.

I just logged my best (commuting) fill-up in my Mustang yesterday morning. 33.468 MPG. Average speed 36 MPH. 60/40 highway/city miles. Not too bad for a 4-liter V-6 in a 3351# car. :)
