one year later...

I went to visit my family yesterday morning in the SVX and thought it would be interesting to compare my fuel economy to what I posted in this old thread, as the route was the same.

Having left home with a full tank, I stopped to top-off at 117.5 miles and added 4.36 gallons, just a tad past the click-off to bring the total to $10 even. That works out to 26.94 MPG. Traffic was very light and I saw not a single law enforcement vehicle, so my right foot was definitely a bit heavier than usual on this run.

It seemed in recent weeks that my fuel economy had worsened, but I suppose that's a psychological function of seeing the price has increased by a dime per gallon at every fuel stop.
