When I drove like a jackrabbit tanks ago, I used to blame my 20-25 mpg tanks on the AWD, multiple hood scoops stock, and spoiler.

Since my SGII, the first 100 miles I averaged 40mpg rural city driving a couple miles to work. I road tripped to Santa Cruz and squeezed 453 miles out of the remaining tank. 14 gallon previous fill, refilled to 13.3. 50 mpg from 1500' Placerville to 500' Santa Cruz Mtns.

I have seen the top of the mountain, and it is good.
