If this is in reference to me... I am psychology major, and we do a lot of research methodology stuff.

If not... Yeah, that guy has a lot of time on his hands...

Just as I suspected, Blazing Blue gets better mpg than Bayou Blue, well except for in my house.

It's a great idea for a basic graph, but your sample size seems a bit limited. You should include further rejection parameters into the box plot, or else it may end up looking skewed, where it should theoretically be a normal distribution. I would also try using a 5-point standard deviation considering the range extends from the high 20's to high 40's in MPG.

Which program did you use to graph this? Got a Minitab key I can steal

I'm just finishing off a stats class and my trial version is almost over, and I can't re-install it afterwards.
