My first thought was "How far was this from your starting point?" Someone posted on here today that it took his car three miles to warm up. That seems reasonable, but in the Phoenix area, our engines should not get too cold.
I think that I accelerate faster than most, but I do not stomp on it. I was surprised that you accelerate to 60 KPH in 740m. According to Google Maps, an on-ramp is 400 m, and I hit 55 MPH (88 KPH) in that distance.
By my math, it takes me 32-33 seconds to reach cruising speed. I accelerate as hard as I can without the transmission downshifting.
UltArc, how quickly do you accelerate?
What does it say that I am asking the guy with a Mustang?
I had been accelerating slowly, but when I bought my Ultragauge and saw the prolonged single-digit MPG, and then when I accelerated faster, I saw higher numbers, allowing me to stop accelerating sooner, it seemed overly simple.
