The Scangauge is now more calibrated, and showing roughly 30mpg for mixed traffic (gridlock/highway) and 38mpg when its only highway. Driving habits, license blocking the grille, and removal of mudflaps help me get there.
Today I was in the garage building another air blockoff for the front:
I started with cardboard to build the general model, then built the final one with corrugated plastic. It was covered with some old silver vinyl that I happened to have laying around, and then attached with zip ties.
I cant wait to try it out Tuesday.
