Feb 5 2023

I am 2 years in on the "new" WRX and this will be my last entry. I hope some of you have appreciated my input. This last fill-up included a 3 gallon splash so I didn't run out of gas before I could get to the cheaper Costco gas. This was one 300 mile drive westbound on I-80 in PA at 68-73 mph and then 160 or so miles local back and forth to work. Some very cold temps in the morning hurt gas mileage. 31.2 mpg on computer vs 28.4 actual. Cheers!

301 miles at 68-72 mph westbound I-80 through PA. ....3 traffic jams....Rrrrrrr (I shut the car off when sitting still). Temps were 75-85, no A/C. Did 27 miles city driving after I got back prior to filling up. Guestimating 28 mph city, so 35.8 mph on the trip which is way higher than I expected. I was doing my usual speeding up down hill and slowing down up hill hypermiling thing, so that helped, obviously. 38.1 mpg on the computer vs 34.8 actual.....

All highway return trip westbound across I-80 in PA at 55-58 mph. Temps started at 65 and finished around 75, so still good for higher MPG. This was 93 octane gas....I am alternating the mix between 87 and 93 octane...I don't have mid grade available at my Costco (where I usually get my gas).

87 octane after trip eastbound on I-80 across PA. Drove 55-58 mph (I wasn't in any rush) and temps were 68-72 deg...perfect for good mileage. Highest ever MPG. Computer was closer than usual...45.9 mpg on computer vs 43.4 actual. These are legitimate numbers.....I was very surprised!
