Just filled up and calculated 37.5mpg for the last tank!!! Funny how that extra 2mpg allowed for 3 extra days of driving LOL. I noticed a trend of fillin up every 9 days but this time I squeeked off 12 before havin to top off again. I imagine its entirely thanks to the tuneup, namely the thermostat and housing now allowing the motor to warm up properly. Ide like to see if the spoiler will help at all but most of my driving is in town so I dunno. I DO know that Im gonna mess with grill blocks next, if allowin the motor to warm up can make that big of a difference, Ide love to see what I could do if it warmed up quicker for those short trips.
