Gas mileage on my RX
Is it safe to say that if i'm cruising at 50mph, on cruise control, and it shows 24mpg on the "instant mpg monitor" that I would really get 24mpg on the entire tank if I would hypothetically take a long trip at the speed using the entire tank? If so, that's like over 400 miles...pretty good!
Not sure if I was on the flatest road as I only checked it for about 20 seconds. I may try again for longer periods of time at different speeds on the highway; i'll try it this weekend.

I've gotten 24.8 mpg for an entire tank before running at 65 mph without CC (probably could have done better with it). That's pretty much the slowest I can drive on a road trip. lol

Yesterday I took a 150 mile round trip that was about 95% highway miles. I had the cruise set between 62-65 mph. My dash mpg read 35.4 mpg... which I knew was laughable. I had already top off the tank and set the trip meter before starting the trip. When i got back I topped off the tank and calculated the gas used. I got only 22.4 mpg. I was disappointed hoping I could get 25 mpg.
