New high for the Paseo, 70.8 mpg!

Just filled up this morning for an all time high of 70.8 mpg. I think it helped that I let the tank go longer, this was also my longest tank @ 722 miles.

I really didn't think this tank would be that good since I had to go through crummy traffic multiple times.

Thumbs up New high for the Paseo, 70.8 mpg!

Now that's amazing! Sometimes I feel the EPA went too conservative with their ratings changes whenever I learn of stuff like this. But, I'm sure if somebody from Edwards did a review on the same car he would find a way of knocking the MPG down to 22MPH.
