Considering gas is stored in underground tanks, seasons have little effect on the amount you fill up (you won't get less in the summer and more in the winter, etc)Originally Posted by Evo Andy
nytejade: My theory is,you live NE like me (UpState,NY). In Fall/Winter cars run longer ideling,F/R defroster(s) on, lights are on alot more . .all this combined with the "winter mix". .may contribute to this.DON'T forget the clean/crisp Candian air that makes more power for also makes us put our right foot down just that much more.ps:since gas expands in the summer/heat you get more

Right, I think it has more to do with air density, and the effect of that on combustion. But I'm not a physicist, and I don't play one on TV.

They switch to a winter blend usually could have to do with that?? I wonder this myself, I want to see the gas tested and results thats what we need and question answered..

The winter blends decrease MPG, but I remember hearing they started using this year round in NE, but not sure.
