Just refilled the tank. 51.8 MPG on that tank - best ever. Lots of drafting, lots of coasting whenever I could. Still have lots to learn on how to get the best gas mileage.

My best before this was 48.3 MPG and that was with 12" tires and original brakes/knuckles, but average was more like 46MPG.

Best after my brake/knuckle/13" tire upgrade was 45.5MPG, but average more like 44-45mpg
