I routinely get 24.5 mpg ( as calculated at the punp) from the Missoula area
to Spokane going over 2 mountain passes and cruising at 81-82 (speed  limit
75). Mine has a stock ECU. My trip computer reads about 8% low usually. I've
gotten 27+ cruising at 65, which I find very hard to do :-) Before MT put
their speed limit on in '98, with cruise set at 100, I would get about 21.
