Congrats Trik!

I'm trying to get to 600 miles with my 4runner but I don't drive highways more than 10-20 miles a month and my best tank was 569 with a 20+ gallon tank on a road trip. Maybe next summer roadtrip I can pull it off. Just trying to get to 500 miles during my 90% town driving regular tanks.

008-09-02 569.6 mi. 20.55 US gal $3.64 27.72 US [edit] Full tank driving with 90% highway/10% city. Heavy use of P&G in neutral. Was able to neutral coast it down from 60mph to 35mph on some long stretches. Ideal weather for driving. Never allowed mph to go above 60mph using pedal (did coast above 70mph in some stretches). Never allowed rpm above 1700 entire tank.
