2014 Road Trip MPG - Pleased at last!

[whizkidtn]

FYI:
Now at ~15K miles on our 2014 Rogue SL (AWD), just took a long road trip this summer from Knoxville, TN to Madison, WI and back.

Running with the AC on the entire way with two adults and running Mobil E10 gas, I achieved 32.3 MPG (computer said 32.6) on one 370 mile tank and 33.1 MPG (computer said 34.1) on a consecutive tank of gas. Mostly running ~70ish MPH with moderate/light traffic and on cruise control.

Given the EPA rating is 32MPG, I feel pretty decent about these results.
If I ran slower (I wasn't willing to get rear ended!), I'm sure I could improve a bit on this (maybe ~34MPG?).

Tire pressure set to 35PSI (cold), recent 4-wheel alignment, clean air filter, M1 0W-30 fresh oil, 90°F ambient temp, no rain while driving that 11 hours straight.

Congrats to you! I have had only one long distance trip under my belt, and with 100% highway miles I still only got a shade over 31 mpg.

I am really happy with MPG of my 2014 Rogue FWD. Highway I got more than 33MPG and city more than 26MPG. Mixed MPG highway + city, on a trip of 1977 miles. I got 32.373MPG
MPG also depends on your style of driving. I accelerate gradually and I use gas pedal (plus amble distance) to adjust my speed so that I do not have to brake very often especially on highway.

That's pretty good. I finished a 580 mile round trip from NYC to Syracuse a few weeks ago and managed to get about 29.7 MPG for the entire duration. Probably about 90% highway and 10% city with cruise control around 73 MPH in somewhat mountainous terrain.
