ford focus 40/45mpg

its a 01 4 door
spi SOHC with the long legged manual trans and the 14" rims, its a base LX.
also its still missing the rear bumper cover...it came that way..
its original rating, http://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/calcu...umn=1&id=16631


A\C plug is pulled,
tires at 50,
E0 87 octane gas at all times..
about 40 miles a 600 mile tank in EOC
a brick wall of 60 mph and most of the time at 40/50


open road im pulling about 44/47
DDer route about 40 (sea level to 1,000 feet every round trip)

i say about-mpg as i have to buy E0 gas in cans and take home and put in autos...


not really right on math, more of a guess and buy golly.......
the car came with 1/2 a tank of E10 and it drove about 190 mile on it.
the first can fill of 1/2 of the tank went about 220


this has been a major nut behind the wheel adjustment to get these numbers...
