This weekend about 360 miles round trip on flat land I got 13.5-14, but some of that is 70mph interstate so I'm doing 80 and when you go that fast its almost as bad as city driving, but its that way on all my other cars too. I'm sure if I kept it 70 and below I would have gotten 15

Just averaged 13.0 today with the cruise set at 80 on a roughly 250 mile trip (1/2 tank used btw), and that was also driving into a 10-15 mph steady headwind the entire trip. I’m pleased. My Gen 1 with the Whipple would’ve been 11.5-12.

Took my first trip of any distance last weekend. Drove 90 minutes on interstate between 70-73 mph with myself, wife and three kids, 1/2 tank of fuel and averaged 16.5 mph. This was in northern portion of NC, ambient temperature was mid 80’s. I was pleased, especially after seeing 8-10 mpg up to that point with my only in-town commutes. Truck now has 550 miles on it. I honestly do believe the mpg has improved with break in.
