What I generaly do is if coming up on a hill with a low grade I'll hold my speed and while on the flat at 40 mph I'll usually get 58 - 60 mpg if I hold 40 on the slight upgrade hill it will usually drop to 38 - 42 mpg depending on grade. Luckily I'm in a mostly flat area with a lot of farms. I don't expect to hold it with this trip coming up but in the meantime.go Team Chevy!!!ĭWL hasn't worked well for me. ![]() Was also able to obtain a 3 tank average of above 50 mpg and continue to hold it through 2 more fill ups. Would have liked to have made it a propper 500+ mile tank but heading across state tomorrow for a wedding and I wanted a seporate consumption report for that round trip so I ended my tank early. With such a good start I tried to push it for the hole tank but drizzle and slightly more traffic for the next 2 days had me pick up my speed to about 48 mph and drop my mpg down to 55.1 mpg.įourth day was clear so I was able on my last round trip to and from work to bump it back up to the 55.49 mpg I ended it at. From the gas station to work (35 miles) I had an average of 58.1 mpg, on the trip home (slighly more uphill) it dropped to 57.4 mpg. ![]() With good weather and no traffic, did 42 mph the majority of the way to work. ![]() Started my tank out on Sunday morning after I filled up at my local gas station. I plan to replace it with a better looking and more sturdy version and will document that on here when I get around to doing it. Pumped tires up a bit more, running them at 47 - 49 psi warm which is like 46 psi cold, 2 psi above sidewall rating.Īlso have a pexiglass lower grill block that has been showing a good 1 - 2 mpg improvement.
