Almost 200 miles without me driving it. This tank, the car has been to Orland, Mokena and Morris, as well at to the city 4 days. The fall is definitely with us, along with the wind direction we have during fall and winter, but I am starting to think that BP changed something with their fuel. We will see how this tank performs. Perhaps a change in stations is in the air? BP at Rt. 55 and Rt. 52 3oz XPS 3oz PS Odo 12321 mfi 50.6 (5.7%)

Another challenging week. I was really concerned that I wouldn't hit 50+ mpg this week. I added mpg every day. Started the week by heading up to Lake in the Hills via Rt. 47. Weather has changed and several days we had wind from a Northerly direction. 5 days commuting. Rained a couple of days. Does the MFI get reset after a service? Is so, does it take a couple fill-ups to settle back down? BP at Rt. 55 and Rt. 52 6oz XPS Odo: 11666 mfi: 52.1 (2.9%)

Very challenging week for trying to get the best MPG possible. 5 days commuting. 2 trips to Morris. It rained for a couple of days and the wind was out of the Northerly direction a couple more. Running MPG = 50.6! MFI was out of its normal range, which is strange... Almost done with XPS. Will likely go back to PS.
