Just got home from work, ran 148 miles with an average of 84.3 mpg, been bouncing mid and upper 70's for the last couple of fills, Maybe I will get my first 80+ mpg tank, (crossed fingers, toes, and maybe even eyes when at stoplights.)
Just came back from fixing a couple of computers, drove another 72 miles and my mileage dropped to 84.1. Had some really helpful people on the trip, twice on the way up was passed by pickups with bellowing mufflers only to have them stop 1/2 mile up to make a left turn which brought me all the way down to 0 because of oncoming traffic, and then had it happen once again on the trip back home. Am beginning to hate these young kids having to show off their big motors. I just stopped behind them tooted the horn and gave a big grin and waved. If they could have read my mind they would have tried to hide. I just wish I could have had the gas they wasted to pass me, could go another 10-15 miles.
