as all have stated too many variables, but as some one who has made countless road trips thru good ole Wyoming ( I live 30 miles away from Cheyenne) And wind is the #1 contributor to good or bad MPG. same car same gas stations on the same day same route, jsut one was made in the morning when it was calm 28 mpg, later in the day moderate wind 24mpg. no traffic anytime haha it is Wyoming after all...

wind has an exponential effect on mpg, punching a hole through 5mph wind is pretty easy at 35mph, but at 80mph a lot harder!

im just happy to hear someone properly taking care of their car with gear fluid changes
