I took the car for a professional alignment after my diy alignment:
0.005" of toe-out on the left side
0.04" of toe-out on the right side.
The guy at the shop said it's green on the machine and did not want to touch it any further. I'll build a couple of steel plates and then I can dial it in to a little bit of toe-in.
And we were lucky and managed to go on the summer vacation, which means fuel economy data.
I've had some sections identical to last year.
Section 1 (293 miles, 40 miles of highway, similar traffic):
25.59 mpg in 2019
27.22 mpg in 2020 - this is very close to what I noticed testing earlier
Section 2 (232 miles, 70 miles of highway, worse traffic in 2020):
28.51 mpg in 2019
27.47 mpg in 2020
Total average fuel consumption over the entire trip:
2051 miles / 25.34 mpg in 2019
1608 miles /
27.57 mpg in 2020 - this includes 2 hours of driving in torrential rain, and even more with very serious wind and 400 less highway miles.
This is a sample of national roads. Every time I'm driving under 40mph, the torque converter unlocks, so that's wasted fuel.
Driving in the torrential rain I must've hit a puddle fast enough to break the airdam away from one mounting bolt, so I will rebuild it out of sheet metal and I will have the option of adding a shelf on the bottom if that could reduce drag.
Total average fuel consumption over 11.250 miles: 23.9 MPG.
