This Tank has been amazing 21.3L/580.3km = 3.67L/100km or 64.03mpg, this is so far beyond my already outstanding 90 day average of 53mpg that I have to keep checking the guages. 64mpg/53mpg = 1.2075 or a 20% improvement. Not only that but my odometer reads 76km when the distance is 80km. On Saterday when I fill up I will see the real numbers...
How I do this winter in the snow and cold using LOG will be interesting, maybe I can get my lifetime average to over 50mpg this year.
One thing that I have started to do is to use the slow Truck lane for going up hilles on the highway so that I can drive at 60km/hr - 80km/hr [35mph - 50mph] without bothering any one. also by using 4th gear and DWL I can keep the Load at 70 - 80 for the hill. I don't know how much this affect FE but my thinking is that at 70km/hr [40mph] the aero load is reduced...
Fueled up to day August 27, 2011 419m/6.48Gal = 64.66mpg It's looking like I may get to the 90 day 60mpg zone before the winter.
