I finally did it!

I finally broke 50mpg on my normal work commute. 357 mi. on 6.99 gal. I have been able to break 50 on the interstate, but my work commute is 30% city and 70% hilly state road. I never would have thought I could get it. I guess maybe I should start on some serious aeromods now.

THANKS EVERYONE FOR YOUR SUPPORT
