20.6mpg Solid enough but given that you didn't mention what the car's rating was, it's hard to know where you're at.

As for driving without a seatbelt, it's not for me. I'm getting 59% over the EPA rating (38mpg vs. 24mpg rating) with my seatbelt on. I've been in one high speed crash in the last 20 years that I wouldn't have walked away from without a seatbelt, so unless you're suggesting I never drive over 20mph, I'll stick with what's working for me.
