My first increase

Possibly just due to moderately cleaner roads and slightly higher temps, but I went from 29-30 on my first three tanks to 33.7 on my last one.

Only change was air in the tires and I think somewhat improved driving technique.

Cool cool but i'm sure with that mileage i'm sure there's still a bit of room for even more improvements
