Amazing mileage! I checked Fuelly and 2 other manuals are averaging over 45MPG, so it looks like its quite good at beating its EPA rating. What is most of your driving like?

Thanks! I never cared about cosmetic mods either before the mirage,but it has no side molding so every time I looked at it,I felt like something was missing.
My driving is mixed highway and city about 27mile trips to work and home.
And I will hypermile as much as traffic from behind will allow me!
Some days are good but most of the time I have to keep 55mph on my highway section because nobody around here knows that it is perfectly fine to safely pass a vehicle on the road.
I just get the 90mph closing speed approach from behind and then they settle 15-20 feet behind me hoping I went faster. I see this happen to other drivers on the road too.
So to be fair to the EPA numbers we have to consider that I hypermile!
However I can only imagine how (bad) someone would have to drive or how bad traffic would have to be to get any worse than the EPA numbers!
