Report back the number your display shows you for average MPG after the 10 miles.

It will overestimate slightly, but do you want to bet that it shows mid 30's or above for the 10 mile test?

Granted I did this test in the summer with temps about 75 and regular blend gasoline, but I was showing 36+ mpg in my car (rated 33mpg highway) during my 10 mile test, this was a test that I repeated several times.
When did you become the MPG expert - go to guy. Man you are the king of arrogant ingnorance. Uggh!
