    595.6 miles on 19.214 gallons for 31.0 mpg.

    Couple of trips to Denver airport helped out.

    10 weeks to burn that tank.

    Just drove 200 miles from Boulder down to Golden, then up to Blackhawk and then up peak-to-peak highway to check out the fall leave changing spectacular. Then a drive through RMNP to check out the elk rut, watched a bull and his 8 ladies hanging out with 4 smaller bulls off in the distance wishing they had some action. Drove up Old Fall River Road which didn't help the mpg, but still managed 32 mpg round trip.

    After almost 2 months of averaging around 25 mpg with A/C running 90% of the time, it's finally cooling off here and my last tank I got 26.5. This next one is on par to be the same.

    My best tank so far has been 24.65 mpg on non-ethanol gas. Pretty good for a 4X4 in mostly city driving.

    Worst tank since last winter 405 miles on 15.923 for 25.4 mpg.

    Haven't needed to fill up in 2 months and could have gone another week or so but needed to purchase before the end of the month to get the discount. 0.799 after $1.00 discount for a whopping $12.72 for 2 months gas.

    I think I have only 65 miles since the last fillup on 11/29/15.

    I've finally started walking the 10 minutes to work every day for the last month. It could be March I next fill up.
