Elevation and Mileage

[f5fstop]

A 350 hp engine, driven from 0 feet above sea level to 1000 feet will drop to 337 hp, thus affecting fuel mileage.

I get about 13 mpg around Denver. When I travel to the midwest my mileage deteriorates to about 11. Before I moved here from the midwest I averaged about 16 in a GMC sierra and while out here visiting noticed I was getting about 19.

I do notice more power at lower elevations for certain.
