I did it! 31 MPG on the way home from work which beats my old record of 29! The new rout to bypass the freeway paid off this direction... at least it did today but I suspect it would every day. I'm quite sure now that my house is higher elevation than work. Going the other way it seems a wash for on vs. off freeway. The good news, I can now hit over 30 going both ways rather than 1 way.

Hit 200 miles on this tank and still a bit left halfway mark. It will be a new record by a long shot.
