Does anyone actually get the posted 22/24 mpg?

[Kevin]

I just hit 2,000 miles:

• First 500 miles: 24.2 MPG
• Next 500 miles: 25.1 MPG
• Next 1,000 miles: 23.0 MPG
  • I suspect this drop has to do with winter blend fuel, cold temps and some driving on snowy roads, which happens to every car in Minnesota during the winter.

This is on a 1958 with stock 18" Yokohama 245/70R18 tires and no roof rack. Mostly easy highway commuting miles. I've been taking it easy with the new engine, but not hypermiling.
