I do not understand why so called modern cars do not get better fuel mileage.
I do know there is no mystery in a gallon of gas.
A BTU goes so far.
How ever i had a 1969 mustang,302 2 barrel, headers and other minor crap when i was a young man.
A good friend of mine did not believe me when i said i "could" get over 25 MPG with it.
So for fun we set up a test, ran it out of gas, added one gallon and it went 29 miles at a decent rate of speed. about 55 MPH
We went from Bellinham wa (I 5 Samish way Dennys to the Blaine Dennys, had coffee and on way back it sputtered and died.
(we did have more gas along in an other can) LOL
I made a believer out of him!
So to me, fuel injection, computer this and that should do a LOT better.
they dont
