Car: 2005 Ford Explorer, 4wd, 4.0 Engine.
Oil: Pennzoil Conv. 5w30, FRAM Ultra Synthetic Filter (About as good as an Amsoil filter, which is to say, nearly the best I can get.)
Tires: 45 PSI
Mods: EOCing, and 4 oz Opti-Lube XL (Diesel Fuel Additive) in Gas Tank (if that even helps.)
Instrumentation: Stock Computer.
I had a 12.1 mile trip (one way, not both ways) and the MPG figure was about 32 MPG. One 4.3 mile stretch (roughly) was nothing but EOCing.
A small achievement, I suppose (since 4.3 miles of this was more or less "downhill," and this was only one way.) I haven't even removed the roof rack yet.
