Default 34.151 mpg in a 1991 Camry, +21% of hwy rating!

A new personal best.. in real world conditions!

I got 34.151 mpg in my 1991 Camry on 7.906 gallons of fuel over 270.00 miles!
My car is rated at 31 mpg on the highway!

That includes hauling 600 pounds of topsoil in my trunk for 3 miles, and both interstate and stop and go driving. To do this I upped my tire pressure to 40 pounds, up from 35.
