I'll try to do some photoshop work of what I have planned.
That's really great. I'm sure you'll do a lot better in a couple of weeks. I've got an automatic with lower epa estimates, so you should be able to reach the high 40's, at least. Every time my wife gets in my car she says something like "You've got 250 miles on your trip meter and you've only used half a tank? That doesn't make sense!"
