I'm doing a longer commute to work now and so far has been getting better mileage (19-20 range). I don't exactly drive slow either but do sit through about 20 minutes of bumper to bumper traffic each way every day.

Regarding the high PSI numbers.....yes you get better mileage, less rolling resistance. You also get uneven wear on your tires (middles wear faster than edges). You also get longer stopping distances.

Here is as good a place as any to ask: I pretty much always add 2 gallons of gas after the first pop while filling up and have NEVER overfilled. This seems pretty extreme. My Accord normally takes 1 extra gallon. Anyone else notice this?
