i went 316.7 miles on 8.002 gallons, thats over 39.5 mpg! wtf, i never had gas mileage that high before, and i hardly did any freeway driving.
I don't know man, mine is @ 4.29 per gallon and runs about 27MPG
, but maybe it's getting colder
maybe that helps...

congratulations, hardly any freeway driving? You must have been driving below 2k rpm the whole time.
