We traded cars yesterday.

I filled up on Friday while doing errands on the way home. I never get great mileage on that stretch and I had the AC on, so I had 40 mpg on the tank when I got home. Then on Monday I had to bring her car into the shop so we switched cars for the day. I cranked it this morning and sat there, engine running and not even hearing what the kids were saying, just staring in disbelief. Tank mpg was 33.X with 200 and some odd miles DTE. I cycled through the car's display and saw the tank had only 134 miles on it.

This is not going to be a good tank.

Still above EPA highway, but that's not the point.
