Odometer=73894.2 Tire Mileage=19284.3 Run Time=11:01 AVG MPH=26.409 Note the on board computer estimates the latest tank will stretch for about 378 miles which is still far below the ~405 miles of mostly non-city driving about a year ago.

Odometer=71244.3 Tire Mileage=16634.4 Run Time= 8:30 AVG MPH=31.224 Found an alternate path using local/state/national highways that actually avoids most of the interstate. I think this will lead to somewhat reduced traffic with a more consistent flow which resulted in a higher AVG MPH despite the lower top speed. I expect this change to improve my fuel economy enough to justify a few extra miles and the increased time. P.S. There are more traffic lights on these highways so the traffic bonuses maybe negated by having to come to a complete stop more often than before.

Odometer=68771.1 Tire Mileage=14161.1 Run Time=2:38 AVG MPH=37.519 Note: Tire pressure on the previous tank was too high (35PSI) because of the hotter weather so I let out `5 PSI to ease the overly-rigid ride the Pirellis were displaying. Also I made this fill up early to see what my MPG should be on a new common interstate route I will be taking often. That said conditions were not ideal because traffic was either aggressive and too speedy for good fuel economy or really bottlenecked in a few places leading to a low AVG MPH for a 90% interstate/hwy run.

Odometer=65955.4 Tire Mileage=11345.5 Run Time=9.516 hrs AVG MPH=34.836 ~150 Round trip mostly on the interstate with minimal coasting or drafting leading poorer than average "highway" economy. The speed of traffic varied significantly leading to more times where I had to brake and accelerate +/-25MPH.

Odometer=60756.9 Tire Mileage=6147 Run Time=11:24 Estimated to E=29 Estimated MPG=23.7 I originally intended to get Shell 87 on 4/22/2015 but differed it and was caught by a locally universal price spike of $0.25. Late in this tank I had to make a number of very short cold run trips with many of them being less than a mile in length which took the indicated MPG precipitate from 26.8 to the 23.7. The short runs also cause inaccuracies in the indicated MPG.
