So useless. Tank fulls are the real minimum idea for gas mileage. An all highway trip isn't going to say much except the possible best mileage that can be had. Pretty much just as bad as the epa numbers.

In the second video, he doesn't give the location(s), so type of road = ? You're probably correct above, however, in the first video, he says the drive is between Panama City and Pensacola. I drove from Jacksonville to Panama City, and then from Panama City to Pensacola. Panama City isn't near any freeway. I remember waiting at stoplights for quite a long time after leaving the Interstate (to get to Panama City) and on the way back to a different part of the Interstate. Perhaps this is just because of the particular route I took. You would probably know a more efficient route, having lived in Florida.
