Update:
I finished the last tank of me driving like a maniac (70 MPH, no regard for economy at all). $20 of fuel would net me at current prices around 7.3 gallons. That would last for only 200 or so miles.
Today, at 200 miles, with the gas gauge on empty, I was able to squeeze 42 more miles with P&G!
That improved my MPG from 28 to 33! A 5MPG increase from just trying out P&G.
To say that I'm excited is to understate it. This is really fun. I could have gone for the last drop of fuel, but I did not want to get stranded (if I had some spare fuel in the trunk I would have tried it, next time maybe).
This after doing P&G, filling the tires to 44PSI, and removing the mirrors. The car still has a bunch of heavy stuff inside, and the aero has not been really changed.
I'll P&G this whole tank, and then proceed to do the aero mods.
