His trip to work is all highway miles. I don't think I could beat that if I tried. Plus that three story parking garage at the end of my commute doesn't really help, either. That's pretty awesome, though. He'll definitely wipe the floor with my mileage on the next fill-up. I'm still at 68.8 on the FCD, and on the low side of it, bouncing back and forth between 68.8 and 68.6.

I was looking over the service manual, and supposedly it's recommended that you fill up with 91 octane.
