Well, not quite as good. By the time I drove down to the gas station it was reading 28.4 average, then it took 14.331 gal and the total mileage was 404.1 for a 28.2 mpg actual. The total city was about 25 miles of the 404.1 as we live on the opposite side of town as the highway. A little over $40 for the whole family to go visit my parents is definitely a record. Last time we ended up in 2 cars but we had 3 big dogs and we hadn't bought the van yet.
Our total on fuelly is 19.8 mpg (EPA is 20 mpg combined) over the 3741 miles we have owned the van but that is 66% city and 34% highway and my wife is the primary driver and she drives easy but not with any type of hypermile tricks.
