Well, it turns out that the miles since "reset" was not what I thought.
The reset occurred BEFORE I purchased the vehicle.  Turns out that I have
driven only about 200 miles from the full fuel tank.  The gauge is down a
little over 1/3, which corresponds with the 567 mile range of the car.
Today I went for a spin on I-270 up to Home Depot in Gaithersburg (22 miles
RT) and achieved 35.6 mpg, if you can believe the computer...
