Damn you Dave!
Up until now, I actually thought I was doing good getting 28mpg average in my 3/4 ton!!

I take some small solace in that, not having any kind of instant feedback, I could potentially be getting 50mpg single trip averages now and then and just not know it, but if you end up with 35mpg tank average its still 3-4 better than the best I've ever gotten.

Alright, I take it back, I'm not upset. This is what one calls "motivation"
