I will use a new app that connects to ODBII and try again.
Just found torque has a app for that.

I try to shift at 2K RPM and 45MPH-60MPH P&G on the highway.
Ease up to speed and keep a strict 60MPH Max speed (unless its downhill)

I haven't done any Aeromods yet because I am waiting for the local elections to end.

I try to avoid that traffic in-front of the store but there was a van parked in the alley and guys working I didn't want to bother them.

Thanks for the comments. I love trying to drive smart.
I will make more videos and post them because it really helps to know what I should have done VS what I did do.

40MPG isnt too hard in my kia when it got 33MPG with no hyper-milling tactics.

50MPG is the goal with hyper-milling and alot of Aeromods.
