MPG Information and Data

If possible, I would like to see a format that describes the truck, speed at which the MPG is noted. This information may help others to increase their MPG. Low MPG is mostly resulted from: low tire pressure, <O:p</O:pjack-rabbit starts, gear ratio, ect...

<O:p</O:p
As such:

Tires: All Terrain; Air Press: Front 65psi ; Rear OS 65psi , IS 60psi <O:p</O:p
Mods: None. All stock <O:p</O:p
Driving Type: Very few WOT. RPMs stay mostly at 2K for upshifts.<O:p</O:p
MPG: City 13MPG, few stops, no hills, 25-45 MPH Hwy 16MPG: several hills at 3-8 deg, speed 50-65 MPH) AVG MPG per fill up: 14.8

Any suggestions?
