Does anyone know if there is a FALL gas formula? I'm aware that there is WINTER and SUMMER formulas that affect MPG.

Maybe you didn't notice an initial drop, but, as with all things there are so many variables that can account for small changes in FE good or bad. But with time you start to see the trend. You should've mentioned that in the first post of the thread. I'm quite confident that this is enough to account for the drop you're seeing...not only the weight, but the increased rolling resistance as well. Not knowing the diameter/width, etc. it's hard to say how much that might factor in as well.

Well after a tank full of inhector cleaner and slowing down to 65mph average I saw 50mpg on the first half tak of gas but the computer read 47mpg. I then filled up and headed to the Bay Area and after that trip the computer is sitting at 47.8mpg and according to miles driven and where the gas guage sits I'd say its about right. My tire pressure is about 50/48 right now after 20min on the freeway.
