Oh, for sure. A friend of mine has one of those, he drives like a grandma (but is not a "hypermiler"), and I want to say he said he got something like 38 mpg the last time he drove down from Augusta... and that was at highway speeds... 70ish.

You need to do this, Deac! If you can keep your foot out of it, I see 40 plus for you.

I'll even sweeten the deal for you... I'll share my super-secret "economy" route with you. That'll keep you off the interstate and put you on some entertaining back roads.
