Just curious and couldn't find anything about it here. If you don't mind stating the make/model/trim/year/miles/MPG that'd be awesome. Thanks!

Just took a small road trip, 200 highway miles each way.
To: 15.81 MPG taking it easy about 70 mph on the cruise control
From: I tried to see what kind of highway mileage I could get, so I was going 60-65 and got 15.not enough mpg, but just over a 1/4 of the tank was my usual city driving.

I was in the Ozarks of MO, so part of each trip was hilly windy roads, but overall I would say 80% of the trip was multi-lane interstate.

2006 Denali.

Yes, I went from St. Louis to the Lake of the Ozarks, HWY 70 side. I haven't done it in years, but every time I drive 70, I swear I will take 44 and ride out the back roads the other half of the way. Highway 54 has expanded so much, it is easier getting around on the back side of the lake. I hate that two lane hwy 70 with passion.
