My 1979 Plymouth Champ never got higher MPG(50.1) than the 962 mile drive from Browning, Montana (4400 feet) to Superior, Wisconsin (630 feet). The drop must have did some good.... maybe the westerlies too. My 1988 Ford Festiva traveling the 380 mile North Cascade loop, over Washington Pass & Stevens Pass, got 50MPG, with 11,000+ feet of ups & downs. Another time however, I had a 57 MPG tank of gas, in the lowlands over 2 days & cool-downs!
