    My mileage in late October was 41.6, and in November so far, 49.7 and 50.3, covering three fill ups in those months. Yes, I drive a lot.

    The 41.6 MPG in October represents a long trip where I averaged about 80 MPH, at one point reaching 103 MPH, fairly quickly I might add.

    Two other fill ups in October were 45.7 and 53.2, but I have to discount them because I had the recurring problem with blow back from the gas tank on those two fill ups.

    Overall, so far I am at 50 MPG when I drive the speed limit. :D

    Just with what I have noticed...
    I took a trip over the summer to Prescott AZ, and after I crossed over into AZ we took a highway up there. On this highway, there was nothing in sight, just a two lane highway. I drove MOST of the way on it at 85mph, and averaged about 54mpg, so the speed wasn't bad on the mpg.
