55 mpg for 1700 miles

55 mpg is sweet! i guess the speeders would rather get 35 than 15!

 

I just finishe 1150 miles on the CA. coast, got about 47 over all. I blame the tires, new tires, worse then the OEM's for mileage

 

I went on a 1,775 mile road trip back in July - from the LA to Palm Desert, Monterey, San Francisco, Sonoma, Jenner, Reno and then back to LA.; two passengers, loaded cargo. Was averaging a cool 57 mpg before the 80-east to Reno killed my mpg down to 45 mpg in a matter of 30 minutes. Was driving approximately 70 mph on the hwy nearly the entire time, minus traffic spots on the return trip back after July 4th weekend. Slowly boost my mpg back up to 51.9 on the return trip. Only spent 2.75 tanks for the entire trip.

 

I have a 150 - 200 mile trip every week. 65 rather than 70 mph adds about 10 - 15 minutes of driving time a week while keeping my fuel economy in the low 50s.

65 mph works for me.

 

When I change to the new tires, I lost about 3-4 mpg, from the balding oem tires. Even after 5k miles they just dont carry the mileage like everyone said. I used to get 50-51 CONs, now it is more like 47. a real pisser. Michelin Energy Saver A/S are the new tires.

 

I had my cruise set fro 75 and was getting 48.5 from Cincinnati to Indianapolis
