Broke 25 MPG in weekend road trips!

My last tank averaged 26.4 MPG from two major trips over the weekend from my home in Lebanon to Salem, then all the way to Portland the next day.

Seeing as the EPA highway is 24, a gain of more than 2 MPG over stock isn't bad!

When my current tires wear out, I'll pick up some lower rolling resistance tires and see if that can bump me up to my 30 MPG highway goal! I'll be getting Pirelli P4 4 Seasons tires next.
