When I drive to the big village. I get 45mpg at 55mph In town My average starts climbing. I can average 55mpg while driving around in the city. Lots of EOC, Pulse n glide, and anticipating stop lights. Try to time your stops so you can coast down if more braking is necessary make your goal that engine braking can take care of most of your non emergency deceleration.
