Third tank over 600 miles
But the mileage is back down - 57.7 mpg last tank.
What happened is at the end of the previous tank, literally on the way to the gas station, I was coasting down a slight grade and tried to take a stupid "roundabout" too fast. I skidded into the curb, hitting it hard with my right front tire, badly bending the wheel, then bounced & hit the left front on the other curb.
Consequently, most of last tank was with the space-saver spare on the right front and my front end out of alignment. I finally found a replacement wheel and have it back on now, but only within 100 miles of this last fill.
While at the junkyard looking for wheels, I found a passengers side rearview mirror & bought it, so now I have both mirrors again. Of course, I can't help but wondering if it's going to show in reduced FE from added frontal area. But right now, I'm guessing the alignment (or lack thereof) is my biggest FE killer at the moment.
