31.93 MPG!

Had to fillup today at 202.3 miles because I wouldn't have enough for the weekend and gas prices are higher a few miles away so I figured it'd be going up home soon.

Had a couple of really good neutral coast and a few engine off coast stops. Also drove a bit lighter than I had been.

Putting my tires up to 40 psi today so this next tank will have that factored in.

Edit. Our compressor sucks and wouldnt go up over 40 psi, so I couldn't even put my tires to 35.

Tire guage's suck. I'm too cheap to buy a 12 dollar digital one, but the stick ones are so screwy. It would read 32, 35, 35, 32 etc.
