Let's start over......
Awesome pics! Can't beat fish , boats and ships in action
632 miles today.. Got 21.2 mpg hand calculated on the trip there and 19.1 coming back.. was in a hurry the last 100 miles and kicked it up to 85 and 90, it was sitting at 21.8 before i decided to kick it in the butt.
Thanks...definitely a nice ride on a beautiful day. Seafood and oil industries meet at the Gulf. Sometimes with not great results.
Sounds like a nice little ride....good mileage too!

Yea but i didn't do that until the last 100 miles.. I had 250+ miles cruising at 68 to 70 which is why it was showing the 21.8.. It slowly went down after kicking it up to 85.
80+ mph for a whole tank would usually get me around 14.5 to 15mph

That's a lot of miles on your truck. Almost have 12K on mine in a year.
In the past two weeks I have put 847.8 miles on my Cavalier and averaged 30.23 mpg. All of those miles were for business, meaning I will be reimbursed at the current IRS rate of 57.5-cents per mile. Subtracting out my gas cost of $49.77 nets me $437.72 that goes directly into my "toy fund". This two week window is very typical of what I experience during a normal work period, so you can see how that mileage money can start adding up over the course of 3-4 years.....

Gravy on the top of all of this -- every single one of the miles listed above are miles that didn't go on one of my other vehicles.....
