And now the average MPG for Dec 2011 thru Feb 2012 - 30.08 MPG over a total of 2347.2 miles and 79.59 gallons. No new mods since last winter because I got sidetracked getting a new house built.

I averaged 28.11 MPG the previous winter. The improvement is not from new mods, not from improved driving habits, and not from better routes. This winter was much warmer than last winter, plus I had more tailwinds and fewer headwinds than before.

All in all, a good reminder of the weakness in A-B testing.
