I ran about 34/25 last weekend to Warwick, NY and back, about 225 miles
each way, and turned an even 17 MPG. That's better than the mileage I
got from here to Albany and back the week before at about 35/35, and the
Albany run was flatter (to Warwick and back I cut through Scranton, PA -
Pocono Mountains).
