Fuel Economy

[stuffy]

just achieved 41 mpg (us) on my latest tank, almost entirely highway driving, probably an average speed of 110 km/h.

something i just realized about this tank of gas was that it was premium 91 octane fuel, this is the first time i have used it and only did so because the station was almost out of gas and were offering premium at the same price as regular.

i was really surprised by getting 41 mpg because i made no real attempts at keeping my speed down and for big stretches of this trip i was probably going 120 km/h. before i crunched the numbers, i expected about 37 mpg.

i think i might try to fill up with 91 again and see how good it is around town.

i'll report back to my fellow fuel economy nerds.
