my last MPG average was 350 miles at 24.12 mpg between city (20%) and highway (80%) and 93 octane usage and speeds of 70-80mph. Hopefully I could get a 10% increase in fuel economy average in the following weeks.

Thank you LS Concepts!

I could never fully understand that MPG cause I am similar to you (city vs highway) yet I amonly able to clock 21.6mpg yet I have gone 370+ miles on the tank.

If you're talking about what the computer reports to you, it samples at predefined intervals afaik. What happens in between those intervals can mean a lot.
