Default Superchips, love it

Ok, i was out in town tonight, low on gas, so i filled up with 93 and then put the performance tune on. Once i got back on base we have like a 15 mile stretch of road thats 55mph, i set the cruise controll, and this is what i saw....

Had you just reset the meter? I've gotten up to 85/90, reset the meter, and coasted to a stop just to imagine what it would be like, but is that a realistic reading?

believe or not, i get that avg. on the city roads! i get between 28-32 on the highway.. on 87 gas! just set it to cruise control...and reset your gauge...don't know how accurate it could be but, that's what i get..
maybe i'll calculate total millage per tank, just to see how accurate that is...

I reset the meter while going 45 on one road, made the turn and accelerated to 55 and just cruised for about 15 miles from there. I know thats not average at all but still nice to see on my trips to and from mainside and town i can get decent gas mileage.
