I tracked my actual gas mileage for a year, comparing the actual MPG with the average MPH per the SID on my 2001 V6. When my average MPH was under 30, my avg MPG was 18.1 (and the SID was very accurate). MPG was significantly worse in coldest months (Michigan winters).
When my average MPH was 30 - 33, my actual MPG was 20.2, again worst in winter. I recently switched jobs, mow my average MPH is now around 36-37, and my average MPG is around 22. I no longer keep track as after a year I am convinced the SID is accurate (give or take 1/10 a mile). On pure highway driving (avg MPh around 50), I get close to 30.
