6 or 8 months ago, I probably literally would not have believed this was technically possible.
For one thing, on this 133 RT I was virtually unmolested by other drivers - it was nearly all rural driving. Whereas the 100+ mpg RT's I'd been futzing around with earlier were all sub/urban driving with all the usual stuff: unpredictable lights, stop signs, pedestrians, and ... traffic (albeit small town traffic).
Another critical point: I touched the brakes once on the 133 mpg round trip, and that includes negotiating (ie. not "blasting through" approx. 14 turns at intersections, and 4 stop signs - which admittedly, I "rolled", but no more grievously than the typical driver.
