I just drove from Houston to Little Rock, and my average there was 43.3 MPG, and the return trip was 45.2 MPG. I drove between 60 and 70 almost the entire time. (I did goose it a few times since my wife and I were playing the lisence plate game, how many states can you spot. We got 42, including Hawaii and Alaska.)

I get much better mileage on the highway than I do in the city, but I normally get around 36 - 40 MPG on the highway in my commute. I don't know why I got so much better mileage on this road trip. I did get my first 700+ mile tank though. I am currently at 450 miles, and my fuel gauge is just barely below half. If I am carefull I might hit 800 miles on this tank.

I also rolled 30,000 miles yesterday. Wahoo, 6,000 more miles on the bumper to bumper warranty!
