Just drove to Florida and back...to many miles to count, no not Alaska miles I know! But east coast miles. 13.5 to 15mpg. Rolling at 70mph....love the diesel.
Alaska could give you poor MPG on your way up if you have a Gale wind in the face like I did. I was getting 9 to 10 on my way up, I had to tie down the canoe with one more strap as I was scared it would fly off. 13 to 16 on my way back, with tail wind, even 17 some time.
If I would be an early bird, I would try to travel between 5 and 12 in the morning. I think the wind is stronger in PM.
Back from New Mexico, going North East this winter, I was watching the weather forecast and chose the route with less wind and it paid off.
