Bandit, I just got over 39 MPG on my tank I filled up today. Some A/C use, some hwy driving over 75 MPH, trying to coast from time to time with clutch in and / or in neutral. Also, changed oil to full synthetic, 5w-20, which Toyota spec'd as being fine. I also changed out my tranny to fluid to Valvoline conventional GL4 / GL-5.

I have my 2 oem splash panels off the car, so aerodynamically I can do better. I am at 37psi on tires. These Firestone 710s seem oriented for comfort, so I am going to go over 40 PSI and see what happens.

But, this is going to be fun, getting to 40 and beyond. Cheers, Sean
