Just curious to know if anyone of you have logged, even mentally, when you achieve your best MPG's and what the environment has been.

Of course, winter fuel could be a factor, but recently I have noticed that on the same winter fuel from the same station, I get better MPG on warmer (highs in the 50's & 60's) than on cold days. I also admit that I may "puff" my car for about 10 min on cold days.

Also, what about climate? Dry vs humid; high altitude vs low; etc...
