Are you filling the tank or is a gas jockey doing it? Some allow the
tank to top itself, others pump in as much as they can possibly get.
The extra pumping might be your difference in at least one of those
calculations.

Not *that* much. Assuming that his figures are accurate, he only gets about
10mpg. And at 10mpg, to suddenly start getting 280 miles from a tankful, when
he'd previously been getting only 220, means that he's getting _six_gallons_
more gas each time than he used to. Not very likely IMHO.
