One year of EcoModding

[Tygen1]

Well, it's now one year of gas logs for Little Blue and things have progressed much further than I ever expected. I'm averaging around 43mpg right now and one year ago I was at 33mpg. I was really around 30, but I wasn't saving those reciepts before I came to this site. I am really amazed at how well many of the mods work. I can now get 50+ mpg on pure highway driving and 30+ in the city. Add to that the benefit of saving more than $700 has more than paid for the mods. Next year the goal is 50mpg on the commute, if only for one tank....for now I will stuggle to keep it over 40mpg during the winter. Here's a picture to "capture the moment" of the Gas Log and here is how the car sits now....

Very nice improvement

What mods did you do to the front of the car? Grille block?

Yep, complete grill block and 5" lip. Check the "garage" by clicking on the "little Blue" name under my "Tygen1" and you can read all that was done...quite a bit.
