Just drove the same route back in Idaho. 6 mile per hour tail wind. Which isn’t that extreme. Cruise control was set to 88 but the light tail wind took a lot of engine load off at that speed, so my cars hybrid computer fully charged the battery, then switched to engine only mode without battery charging. Instant and average mpg hovered between 51-53 mpg over about a 20 min stretch till the wind changed. 51 mpg at 85-90mph is insane with just a baby tail wind. Really motivating me to build that small boat tail now
