Default My2004 XJ8 hit 30.16 mpg on a 220 mile highway trip!

Hello everyone! I always post "the help something is broke can you help" threads. On the flip side it's nice to report the positive as well. 30.16 mph on a trip to Atlantic City, previous best was 28.5, I sure other have run better numbers, but for this simple guy this was great!! Plus got two compliments on the car.

That is a very good result, steady cruising makes all the difference.

But I want to know the combined cost, y'know, including the casinos.
