I started with a full tank. After doing about half on the 60 and the final half on the 120 I pulled in to refuel with 627 miles. I put back in 29.783 gallons which is just over 21 MPG's with 70/30 hiway/city. Of course this is southern california hiway driving which means the occasional 5-25 MPH stretches. And there was that 10 minute sitting in the drive thru trying to get some food with people that probably should not even be alive let alone working at the establishment I was trying to grub at. The times I was able to drive on the freeway without a bunch of idiots hitting their brakes for no reason I would cruise at 1800 RPM which was about 73 MPH. My overhead now is just way off it used to be within 1-2MPG's now it is off 4-5MPG's. I do not expect to have the few cents saved in MPG pay for the XRT, but it is cool to go over 600 on a tank and still not have the gas light come on. My previous best MPG was 17.94
Oh yeah, not having that little orange glow to keep me company is a mixed feeling. I can still visit with it for a moment when I change tunes before I clear it.
Also the DPF was deleted just recently so that adds to the mileage increase as well.
