Knowing that you live in Texas, as fast as they drive, how fast were you driving on those road trips? Anything over 60-65mph and your gas mileage goes to $hit supposedly. I see it when I drive, highway driving (75mph) gets me the same gas mileage as driving in town. -Nick
I noticed a 4mpg increase on the return portion of a recent road trip b/c i set the cruise at 68 rather than 82.
