I am using the factory MPG gauge for getting averages, but have only had one tank to check actual mileage, since I am a hypermiling beginner (less than a month) I have seen up to 36.1 mpg at the beginning 120 miles of this tank and warmer 40-50 degree weather. It has been cold again here, so i'm down to 34.5 @ 312 miles on this particular tank. I was recording in a notebook of gas receipts etc.....but I think i'm going to go digital with that.

My daily commute consists of about 15 stop signs and 10 stop lights, and is a mix of 25 mph zones and a short 4 miles stretch of 55 mph highway. I am usually in average morning traffic....nothing like in the city.

I do not plan on going crazy with this particular car....because It is too nice to start drilling and cutting and stripping on....but I am on the hunt for an EK Civic to start doing some all out modding on in search of the 60mpg goal.
