So I went and filled up tonight, 250 miles on the dot and 6.446 gallons used, for a total of 38.7MPG. I don't know how the hell I got such low mpg, but whatever. I think there is a problem somewhere, I'm gonna do a compression test sometime this week.

[Edit]: I'm filling up at the same pump, and I try to keep the outside temp within 10F between fill-ups, outside temp was only 4F different (warmer) tonight then it was the last time I filled up.
