But just like everyone said, if you slow it down you should see a noticeable difference in mpg.

So you did notice a difference in MPG simply by buying gas in this state, or not?

I know for sure its not the same gas as all the other states, simply because every state has different (stupid) laws on mixes, ethanol, etc etc. The 10 percent ethanol alone has to account for at least a little bit, as it has alot lower BTU than standard gas.

I just noticed it when I was in/around KC. While I was there I actually did a road trip to Cedar Point (who loves roller coasters? this guy! ) and between KC and St. Loui I got 43.something. I was amazed. I was also doing 60mph +/-5. Didn't feel like doing the mpg for the rest of the trip to Ohio, but I'm guessing the mileage you are getting is related to the way you drive. Acceleration, speed, etc.
