MPG increase

Just filled up and looks like my milage went from 15.xx to 19.xx. Changed nothing, filled up the same. Is this maybe summer gas I have heard about?

Could be. Did you fill up at the same station?

I would have thought that they would have changed over already in Virginia but it's a good possibility.

Is it a no name station? I know some of the independant stations get fuel from various suppliers and maybe the fuel was better.
