LOOOONG Trip

Time to go back to school (Monday)

~381 miles, no prob on one tank right?

Well I'm going to have alot of stuff packed in my car, at least an extra 600Lb of weight

The trip is mostly highway, which will help.

I do not have cruise control, so I'll be subject to the foot getting heavier and heavier as time passes.

Plans for this trip include temp wheel skirts and grille blocks (yay for tape)!

any tips/tricks for long trips you guys have, i've made this trip dozens of times, but never hypermiled it. I usually end up doing between 75-90mph just so I can get there, I want to challenge myself this time, whole trip on 3/4 tank. P&G for 400 Miles will make for a long day though.
