Unless someone can provide a clear explanation, I'm going to have to raise B.S. flag here--I drive on highway frequently around 60 mph (arguably the most economical mph) and barely get 23MPG...

<---- I'm with him! I can understand having a reflash done, and then hitting 300 miles to the tank. But on the stock tune? I ride 95 percent highway and make sure I never go past 65 mph. Even then, I almost never hit past 240 miles to the tank.

I barely get 230 miles per tank. And if I am on the highway, I am cruising at 80 not trying to get 34 mpg in my AWD sports sedan.
