The thing that I have noticed about my gearing is that I accelerate about the same vs when I drive like a normal person (I use the people that are next to me at a stoplight when we it turns green to make sure I am not going too slow).

I'm going to get the Ultragauge for Christmas, so I will report my findings whenever I get it fully calibrated (hopefully by January).

I don't go through that much gas, so I will only go through the rest of this tank and then a little more before I can actually see how I am doing.

What I can tell you, though, is that by using a lighter foot, I got instant results. The tank before I started hypermiling I got 24-26 MPG in the Civic, which is just terrible.
