Im studying Materials Enigneering at Drexel University in Philadelphia. I live close to there on the S. Jersey side. My internship is in Trenton though, so its a good 40 miles away.

Before checking out this site(up until about a week ago) I was getting about 26-28 mpg, mostly highway. Thats with a lead foot. Starting with this tank of gas, I started coasting in neutral alot more (its a automatic so im somewhat limited) and I lowered my avg highway speed down from 70-75 to 55-60. Its a work in progress, but no results yet as i havent filled up again. The more i read, the more i wanna go out and try more techiniques, and with the amount of driving i do, I know itll turn into real savings soon
