Default My real mileage

Here's a table with all (but one) of my gas usage stats. I guess that posting this table removes the formatting.
I have checked my odometer, and it reads within 1% of my GPS.
I am running 33" A/T tires, and this is with 4:10 gears.

Average miles per gallon, up to about 6400 miles is 13.81
My best mileage is 16.09 miles per gallon
On a fairly tough wheelin run, I got as low as 9.37 (John Bull Trail). The 6400 miles includes quite a bit of wheelin. I would guess that I'm getting 16 miles per gallon highway. I do not see any improvement over time, from my first tank.

Ouch. I think I'm getting about the same with 32's and 4 doors. You might even have me beat.

On the highway, I think I'm averaging about 17 or 18, though.... my foot tends to be pretty heavy on pavent. Thanks for posting those #s.

I will never ask Brett another simple question again. Kinda thought you'de look at your digital readout and give me a good guesstimate. Thanks for all the info. Most of my miles are on the freeway. The rest are my foot mashed to the floor. I guess I'm at about 15ish with 35's and 4.10's.
