Summer Gas Blend and/or more mileage (8K now) is definitely improving my cars MPG! Great thing because it was lower than expected initially. I still have to pump an extra 2 or so PSI into my tires too.

Is My Gas Mileage the Worst???
Guys,
All your posted numbers are higher than mine. I kinda feel bad but I enjoy driving my Car without limitation. Just press the gas pedal ....
My E350, 4Matic averages 20.09MPG from August 2010 of ownership. Right after filling up the tank and went to the highway for constant speed of 70Mph for 3.0 hrs, I did see the AVG MPG went as high as 26MPG from reset but as soon as I exit the highway, then the reading will go down. Below is my true analysis.
I drive my car without any hesitation. A lot of fun and kinda not worry much about the MPG. I did purchase Sprintbooster on January and that did not change my MPG profile by much (Most of the time I drove it in red button). On the Highway, I used adaptive cruise control a lot.
The low MPG points are basically my local driving (one person). The High MPG points are my out of state driving (2 Adults, 2 kids with full baggage).
Between late last year and early this year, I had low MPG since it was winter in Michigan.
So, in summary, Absolutely no way I can get maximum MPG for mix driving greater than 22.12 MPG at this time.
AVG MPG reading is for each gas fill up.

And BTW...you're paying $4.50/gal for gas? Yikes,that's high!

Your odometer --> from your car
Cost per Gallon --> From Pump
Gallon --> from Pumo
The rests are done by the program.
1. I tried not to look at the gas pump when filling up the gas.. keep singing.
2. Gas prices hike are affecting all people (not just me)... so no worry
3. Still at least 50% cheaper than in Spain (European Countries)...
4. Try to focus to keep enjoying the car
