Yup - I think over 21k I've averaged around 20.9 MPG with my Max - although I've seen around 29 on the highway, same as you.

My iPhone is always connected via bluetooth, or plugged in if it needs a charge. No crashes since the update, and I've put about 3,000 miles on since the update, including a 350-mile road trip.
