Well---I guess I should have looked before I spoke---CRS is setting in!!

My average overall is 15.6 not 15.9, fuel cost/mile is $0.091.

My worst tank was actually 9.4 mpg which was bad fuel (Sinclair/Cenex) from Calgary AB to Shelby Montana, 63 mph, 16,800 GCW. 11.5 to 13.5 is about the norm for that wieght.

My best of 24.6 was Flying J from north east PA to Rochester NY and back down into central PA. Empty, no cap and mostly 55 mph (no interstate).

I had one short run(Toledo to Sharron) east bound on the OH Turnpike that was 24.8---with a tail wind ;)
Also Flying J.

Overall Flying J is my preferred fuel.
