My Engine Off Coasting is usually 1/3 of my total distance traveled. The way I see it the engine has 1 purpose, Moving the vehicle forward if it isnt doing that It shouldn't be using any gas, so I turn it off.

Thanks to EOC I got 41 mpg on the last trip I took

ok ok it was only 1.66 miles But I coasted .78 miles

Earlier today on a 50+ mile trip I hit 31.42 mpg there and back. 25-55mph
