97 E300 Fuel Mileage Results

Hello everyone, Just wanted to post some results from a recent trip I took from York PA. up to New England this past Sunday to Wednesday

1st fuel stop. Sunday/Monday York Pa-Spfld, MA-Wilmington VT-and back to Spfld 594 Miles 16.98 gals. fuel. 34.98 MPG

2nd fuel stop. Tuesday eve Spfld,MA - Wilmington, VT- Spfld MA and some local running around 189 miles 5.54 gals. 34.11 MPG

3rd fuel Stop Wed-Fri Spfld, Ma - to York, PA to Balto. MD, to York, PA, and back to Balto. 589.5 miles, 16.71 gals 35.2 MPG

I am soooo pleased with the results. I didnt run the AC except on way home from for part of the trip from Spfld, MA to York, PA. Traffic on both long portions of the trip was rather light (with exception of Hartford Ct rush hour on Wed AM). I ran 70+ most parts of the trip, I tried to keep a light foot whenever possible, but sometimes you just have to go with the flow.
