I filled my Dak today, and was dismayed to find after running the
calculations twice, that I've just run through my worst mileage ever on a
tank! 1781 miles on nearly 18 gallons, or 12.24 MPG!
That's with mostly city driving (on tanks of which I usually get 14-15 MPG,
15-16 MPG mixed, and 17 MPG highway only)
It has been really cold here (hasn't gotten above the teens in days), but
other than that, no difference. My battery does seem to be on it's last
legs though, but I don't think that would do anything to the mileage. It
has been really windy, but a 2.5 MPG drop for wind?
