Total HWY Driving in the 55 to 70 MPH range. I have not seen that much drop in MPG on HWY trips before. Wondering if recent (12-19-18) computer upgrade affected MPG.

One of the lower MPG for our car (winter effect?). We had a number of trips health related that led to DRS and Hospitals in Knoxville and Sevierville hard to call city driving as most of it was just county and rural roads getting there with some stop lights and minimal traffic, but I left it at 50% city.
