Gas Mileage after 7K miles
 
Seems my avg MPG is going up. I was averaging around 19MPG when I first bought the car. Now it's been fairly common to see 22 to 23 MPG. I even saw 24MPG on a recent 600mile road trip with avg speed of 75-80. I drive 75% Hwy/25% City. I know I've read about increasing mileage with a few miles, but haven't ever noticed anything this significant. Anyone else notice this too?

Depends on how you drive it...and yes it improves as the rings wear in and get seated better.

I've hit 32MPG for a short while, and no, it wasn't downhill with a tail wind - but I was going 70 on a pretty flat stretch of highway with the cruise control on.
