DFD6F387-3CBD-4D08-96EA-149A5FCF1141.jpegI’m not sure when this trip meter has been reset, but this is long term reality.
edit: I have not reset it in the 23,000 I’ve put on her. It was reading 10.2 avg mpg and had already rolled the miles and the gal used. I’ve actually been running 11.9 mpg in town, 12.2 towing hwy at 65, as high as 16 on a thousand mile road trip and as low as 4 on the beach.

The smiles I have and the people I’ve met because of my Miss Big Booty are priceless compared to the gas I use.

During my 4 day work week, I am averaging 14.5 to 14.7 mpg over 240 miles. 72 of those miles are a 35mph country road and the rest highway. If I keep it below 70 mph it does very well. Traffic is moving on the way in, and I hit two spots of stop-and-go on the way home.

In town driving will drop that into the 13’s over my weekend. It’s actually much better than I expected.

If I’m calculating correctly, it was reset between 10 and 15 thousand miles. (15350 gallons x 10.8 miles = 165,780; 178,000 - 165780 = 12,200)
