11.8 miles

MPG 35.4

Course around home
8.4 miles
cost $.60
MPG 44.0

How can I get better mileage on my second trip and have close to the same cost going less distance.
If anyone knows whats going on that would be wonderful

ps. Also on the way home I was doing a lot of pulse and glide with EOC. I notice that when I do P&G EOC that my MPG goes down quite a bit(if im over about 45mph)
Maybe the app can't deal with the EOC technique? Maybe the app is not compatible with your 07 Civic? Sometimes, some guys report trouble with FE gauges when they do EOC cycles.

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
