Well, I got a disappointing 35.57mpg on a 142.3 mile/4 gallons even road trip.
Haha but as always, I have a few loss buffers, such as the 15mph wind I was fighting. Let me tell you, I could really notice it today compared to my last trip. The car struggled to go 55 downhill! It felt like I was fighting a wall of air.

Also, about 15 of those 142 miles was city (which I only average about 22mpg city right now). I felt like taking out the CB for the trip so the trunk mount antenna probably didn't help matters either.


Hopefully it won't be that windy for a trip I have coming up, and I should have a belly pan and front bumper cover/work done by then.
