I'm having a hard time believing this one! No tire pressure change, 95% highway. Drove to parent's house in Cape Vincent, NY and back. My and wifey on the trip up, added my 4 year old and his bag along with some toys and stuff. Next month I'm gonna make another highway run and see if I can pull the same numbers again.

Filled up at Citgo with regular unleaded (what is always used), tires at 39 psi front, 36 psi rear. Attempted a warm air intake (removed cold air tube at filter box) but hard to gauge any difference with the cold weather gas and slippery roads. Will try again the following week to see if it has the same result.
