Well either way .. take "My" testing with a grain of salt, my wife is the typical grocery getter with the baby and all the gear that goes with it. She makes 1 80 mile round trip drive a week and does not deviate from her driving style. Furthermore our weather for the time being has remained stable, so I doubt that a 4000lb + vehicle will show such a large swing in mileage by wind. Especially when for the past year this vehicle has consistently yielded 18.5 - 19.0 mpg. I started a log for her and asked to collect the info so I can start helping her. I told her to drive normal this whole month to get a realistic average for the vehicle. She and it has not dissapointed me yet.
***Update*** I snuck into the car last night and checked the onboard mpg compute the vehicle has and to my surprise it was reading 22.9 @ the 3/4 tank mark. So for now it is looking promising. More to come by Wednesday.
BTW, she doesn't know the car has one .. yeah it's silly, but true ...
