Cool. Congrats! I also try to avoid going over 10 gallons. When you go much past 10.5 the fuel pump has trouble keeping pressure up and the car will often stall on bump start or key start. You can always solve that by double-keying to prime the pump, but that's a PITA.
BTW, I also did a fill-up. I'm confused. My numbers are not climbing in the heat like they should. But I can't really tell what the cause it because I have changed several things about my driving technique: shift points, DFCO, and more freeway, and some steady cruising. I probably just answered my own question.
...see fuel log if curious.
