Well just turned over 1K miles last night and when I filled up I was getting 14.85 MPG. Gained about 2 MPG over the last take
Hoping to do fairly well going up to NC next weekend.

I use Shell regular unleaded and the best mpg I have gotten is about 15.3 with about 4500 miles driven. I do have quite a few hills in the area that I live in, which affects that number a little.

After the first tank of regular unleaded (87), I filled up with super unleaded (93), and I've noticed much better response from the engine. Not huge, but noticeable. Worth the few extra pennies IMHO.

0.12 U$ / Gallon = 91 octane
0.16 U$ / Gallon = 95 octane
Incredible but true........
