One fill over 31 MPG with a Ford Mustang doesn't prove anything. Four consecutive fills over 31 MPG (at the same station/pump) with a Ford Mustang may have some validity. YMMV
Good point! I strictly did this trip to get a good number figure. If I were to commute to work (usually around 39mpg), I'd lose a lot of it and drop back to mid 40s.
