Alright, got some fresh new numbers. Not trying to get anyone on here to hate me but I broke the "impossible number" yet again. Here is just about every variable I can think of:

207 miles, GPS tracked, not odometer
Average temp 72*F (started at 77, ended at 67)
Distance measured gas station to gas station, volume measured by when the pump tops off.
Gas to fill up: 6.753 gallons
207 miles / 6.753 = 30.65 MPG.

More variables:
Average temp 72*F (started at 77, ended at 67)
Total ascent: 1,538 ft
Total descent: 1,546 ft
Average speed: 61.2 mph (really good since I hit a lot of construction)
Max speed: 78.2 mph
Total time: 3:22 and 36 seconds
Humidity 81% (hit fog on the way so this varied quite a bit)
No A/C, just econ mode on the low fan setting the whole way
lights on the whole time, fogs on most of the time
Fuel was 10% ethanol (noted this)
