But i managed 43.3 on a 30 min trip that consisted of mostly 35 to 40 mph.
I think I have it all nailed down as far as the wallet.

Next benchmark for me will be getting my UltraGauge calibrated and hopefully to start seeing 45mpg as I get used to the car, tweak my route, and start to buckle down on technique. Ultimately I'd like to see 50 but that'll be fairly more tough.
