Less P+G opportunities. I wasn't a very good hypermiler on the way back.

300.4 miles
8.02 gal
37.45mpg

So in total 668 miles, 16.387gal equals 40.76mpg or 16% over EPA. If I was more strict on the way back it would be even better!
That's still really good. I've yet to crack 35mpg in my box, but I know it's within reach. I just have to fine-tune my driving.
