US Gallons : 850kms (530mi), and a little over 13 gallons. i filled it until it overflowed, but still my my methods of measurement are only so good. could my odo be a little optimistic?

I coast whenever possible and draft whatever is around.

the other factor was it was through NC and WV with moderately high altitude driving. i'm running 185 width tires, 10w40 oil, and have recently redone valves, all belts and full tune up on a 180k engine. I'd use 5w oil but i seem to have to always top it up.

I usually drive 50/50 city/hwy and i'll see what numbers i get on the next tank.
