minor gloat
I usually fill the tank on my Cherokee at about 300 to 320 miles but
have let it go as far as 360 miles (not willingly, but in can be hard to
find a gas station open after midnight in the Asheville NC area!).
Well tonight it was still showing about a 1/4 tank of gas but I'd gone
350 miles so filled up. It took exactly 14 gallons.
350 miles... 14 gallons of gas, that's 25MPG!
Out of a 4.0 Cherokee that's phenomenal.

If it has an electronic odometer, it wouldn't have mattered.

I usually fill the tank on my Cherokee at about 300 to 320 miles but
have let it go as far as 360 miles (not willingly, but in can be hard to
find a gas station open after midnight in the Asheville NC area!).

350 miles... 14 gallons of gas, that's 25MPG!

That's only about TWICE the mileage that I get with mine.
You sure someone didn't slip five bucks worth in while you weren't looking?
