Alright, I have a baseline of 15.1 MPG from my first tank. Filled 16.5 gallons at 249.2 miles, or something like that.
This was driving about as far from hypermiling as possible. Shifting at 4000+ RPM in each gear, speeding at 80+ MPH on the highway, cruising at around 3000 RPM through the city, running the AC on max, etc. In short, as aggressively, and economically careless as possible.
Starting yesterday, I have been shifting between 2500 and 2800ish RPM for each gear, cruising between 1500 and 2500 RPM, going only 65 MPH on the highway, and using just the fan instead of AC. Also filled it up with premium 93 instead of regular 87. I have no idea if the higher rated blend will help, but I did it anyways.
Anyone have some other tips, or ideas about the aerodynamic mods I wanted to do?
