Yup, my wife likes to take cases of drinks from one place to another, I try to tell her it costs us more in gas vs. what we paid for the drinks in the first place. Liquids are heavy.
 
Beer is exempt, of course.

I live in northern Ontario and make 2 to 3 trips per year to the southern U.S. Average 23 to 24 MPG on these trips, travelling at 70 to 75 MPH. Local winter driving with snow tires, average is 17 to 18 MPG. Best gas mileage was a trip to Duluth, MN; averaged 25.5 MPG. Engine is 3900 V6 with 240 HP and 4 speed automatic.

Just finished an approx 1000 mi trip in an 05 Quest SE...22 mpg average.
 
I've found over the years the 80ish mph kills the mileage...most of the trip was a 75mph posted limit.

Calculated the old fashioned way (filled up, reset the odometer, then refuelled and calculated by dividing miles travelled with gallons put in) so its 314 miles / 9.62 gallons = 32.6MPG. This is 99% highway driving 65mph on i-95 between Northern VA and NC.

#1886 of 1887 just updated my spreadsheets by steve_ HOST

At 182,040 miles, my '99 Quest is getting 21.58 combined mpg. Best tank last year was 26.54, worst was 19.06.
 
The scary number is $21,090. That's approximately what I've spent on gas over the years (assuming $2.50 a gallon gas since '99).

That's really not too bad of a price...you could have driven around the world over 7 times for only $21k...
 
Assuming such a perfectly round road existed...
