Mpg challange updates?
Best I was able to get was 32MPG. Let me tell ya it took some very carefull driving! Now this was with an automatic, with a manual I could have shifted lower. Still I was accelerating so gentle and slow, I wouldnt pull out quick into those open slots in traffic and mainly I didnt go any faster than the speed limit. It felt good to get gas mileage in the 30's but damn it wasnt easy. I made it 2 tank fulls 31 and 32MPG before I started driving more normal not going so slow and saw high 20's.
25.065 mpg last time i made a 90% interstate road trip. Not really admirable numbers, but i was beating on the car almost every chance i could get, and drove 80mph the whole way.
The key to good mpg for me is 60ish mph. Any more than that and it makes a big difference. Maybe those speedy highways or expressways would be ideal for me with their 65mph limits.

Now there's some logic!
