Update:
It seems that the longer route yields better mileage.
Although this has been in the Town Car, I've averaged 19.7 mpg using the short route, and 22.9 mpg going the longer way.
All this with a car that weighs 4500 lbs.
Not too bad. The killer is that hill, going both ways, one the short route. I cannot coast. Plus that damn stop sign.
But with the longer route, going down the large hill, I can coast to the stop sign; 2.5 miles from the top of the hill to the sign.
Also, the road goes straight up the hill, no curves or crazy bends.
Carry on, carry on.

Reason: Wrong coasting distance
