My computer reads 24gpm avg now, hand Calc to 22-23mpg. And that's mostly highway with lots of rolling hills here in PacNW. I bet driving through Nebraska would yield upper 20's
When I drove across country i was able to crest 25 and i've seen as high as 27(hand calculated and tracked via fuelly)

Under 75. Anytime I went over 75 it plummeted.

Looking at my logs in states with higher speed limits I averaged 23.6 and states with speed limits closer to 70 I averaged 25.4
My trip that was 27 was like 60mph average
