Going on a road trip to Ocean City MD on wed. Its only about 400mi round trip but id like to see what i will get on that tank. Going to up the tires to 44psi. Also changing oil tomorrow to 5w-30synthetic with oversized filter so maybe i will see a little gain from that as well. Happy miling
I also run my tires at 44 and I use 0w30 advanced fuel econ by mobil1. I have readelse where that if you only fill your engine oil up to midway on the dip stick that it helps you out a little.
