So, from spring break and then this past week, I've had A LOT of highway miles racked up on my just broken in Mustang. I've been very impressed with the MPGs I've been getting, and even got to do some 1/4 mile runs on these highways as they were out in the middle of nowhere. I'm very happy with a 13.3 from an automatic, running on 87 octane, with crappy 235 tires, and my wife in the passenger seat. :) Can't wait to try it on a track, with some 255 or 265s and 93 octane.

Those mpgs are down right impressive! Ibam also pleasantly surprised with mine as well, seeing almost 30mpg on the highway.

I have yet to use the track apps but look forward to it as the weather is starting to get nice. 13.3 is a good start in a 3700lb car for sure
 
Near 30 with all those mods? Nice! When I just go to work back and forth, and an occasional drive to lunch, I seem to get around 24.5-25.0. This is almost identical to my '13 GT Manual.

I kept track of it some on fuelly, tracking my fuel ups, and the onboard was pretty accurate, but a little over actual.
