Are you forgetting to reset your trip odometer, bunny?

Here's the numbers for my last tankful - 19.2 IN TOWN/MIXED.

WOW.

I hope this lasts.

Nope!!! I'm just lucky I guess.

I've been getting low 300s and getting between 13.5-14 gallons on fill-ups.

Got gas on my way home from work tonight and good mileage again!!! I got 23.23 MPG, 13.2 gallons on fill-up, and 307 on my trip. This is my best so far. I hope Bella keeps it up.
