So this is what it's like!
Filled up my car an hour ago, after driving to a Chevron a few miles down the highway (they're the lowest Chevron around by about $.20 / gallon).
Since I rarely drive on the highway, on the way back decided to see what mileage is actually possible with half highway mileage and babying the G. Cruised home at around 80 mph, cleared some lights on surface streets and surprise!! 23 mpg for the (fairly short) ride home - which is quite a diff from my usual 15 :cool: Still, back to experimenting with torque curves tomorrow :D |
Hahaha... Sounds fun. ;)
Well, I try to drive slow these days and I now get right around 18 +/- 0.5 MPH.... and that's a big improvement from 12~13 MPG that I usually get. lol |
are you proud?

Miles out of a single tank...wow |
I typically cruise around 70, and I get around 400 miles per tank or around 22mpg, depends how much stop-and-go is added in there.
