Gas Milage is great!
I did a few things this weekend (oil/filter change, pads/sensors, reinstalled angel eyes)
Then I drove 300 miles (Detroit - Chicago) and I still had half a tank left! My OBC showed that I still had about 208 miles to go until I needed a refil. So I only needed 9 gallons to go 300 miles, that's over 33 MPG! I could even afford to downshift a few times and spank this punk kid in a Golf R32 a few times. (These VW and Audi drivers, I tell ya
)
It seems like my car knows how expensive gas is these days. Take that 4 bangers!
That is all.

Oh, damn! Going 300 miles at under 1500 RPMS, I wonder what type of gas milage I'd get.
Well, I probably didn't even have to downshift from 6th to beat that underpriced Audi.
It actually took 4 hours. Left at 5:30 yesterday morning.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Pretty sure that was the main reason for the increase.
