    On the current tank, I'm at 59.5 MPG. The first bar just fell off at 198 miles. Here we go again.

    Yeah and my wife just called to say that she is about to get her first 600 mile tank. I've created another one. She's at 582 miles at 53.1 MPG and her last bar hasn't started blinking yet. I love it.

    Damn you Ray! :)

    I had my annual trip to Ohio through the App. Mtns - 450 miles of setting the cruise at 70 or 76 depending on state. So, my trip tank brought in a nasty 46.4 - but we filled up 200 miles before hitting back home, so I've got 3/4 + of a tank yet to beat you on! :)

    My wife called to say that she just filled up with 11.75 gallons. MFD showed 52.9 MPG.

    Final result.........610 miles.

    It's official. I've created another mileage freak.

    BTW her last bar blinks alot later than mine.

    Now that I'll be going into east Tampa alot, I won't be making the same numbers I used to. Also having the AC combat the Florida heat isn't helping either.
