I am commuting about 50 miles a day. Highway but 1/2 is start stop in heavy traffic. I have been betting low 30's. Just put in power service diesel additive in last two
tanks. I'm noticing a big difference in fuel consumption for the better. Keep in mind mine is a NA engine not turbo. 211k so far. Might want to give the additive a try.
