I got looking through some of my data-bases. Here are some of my fuel milage records. Keep in mind that fuel mileage reports must be done over-time to be useful. One-time "highs" usually mean nothing. That because sometimes, at certain service stations, you cannot fill a diesel pickup truck properly and get false readings. Many places have "big truck" pumps only and make too much foam when trying to put fuel into a small hole.
