I just bested myself again! I broke 47 mpg yesterday on the first 155 miles on a fresh tank. Firstly, I'm getting better at DWL and I seem to be able to do a reset on my mileage by letting off of the throttle and gently reapplying to attain a target mpg as I'm driving. Second, I got lost in a congested area with lots of short steep hills which limited my top speed average to a max of 55 mph but mostly 30-40. I still used AC pulsing.
