Default mileage - 4.2
my trip 2 calculator says 20.8 after 5 tanks, first two on an 850 mi Rd trip which averaged nearly 24, balance around town. I believe after 4,000 mi I am getting 17 in town (up hill to get home at night) and 25 on the highway. Which offers a nice range! Will test on a 2500 mi trip next week, incl. eastern Or and NV. (eat your hearts out) hi hO awaY

You must be fairly aggressive with 12-14 in town, no?
