IT "generalist" - I do a little bit of everything, although it's trending more towards databases as time goes on. I currently work in automotive manufacturing, although on the assembly end of things.
Four years ago, I bought a Toyota Yaris. Plain car, but it worked well and got me 40mpg on my 35 mile commute without any hypermiling techniques at all. Sadly, I lost it in a fire and drove a Caliber for a year. The CVT was neat but hard to control for fuel efficiency, and when it started to have trouble I traded it in for a Scion xA, the Yaris with a hatchback body. My first goal is to push up my average MPG past 40, then see where I can go from there. The Scion has a different final drive than the Yaris, more geared for sporty than efficient.
