The close relationship of temp and mpg, gas or diesel, is really impressive

I made a few small changes (full radiator block & oil pan heaters 10 days in, slight route change after day 20, & lower grille block at day 40). It's always hard to tell exactly what impact those mods had, but my opinion is that the temperature change was the most significant thing. Of course, there's always differences in traffic, how I catch red lights, rain, snow, etc. as well.
