Last night's trip home was the one of the best ever

This was pure hypermiling, no faster than 45 at any time except for a pulse to 55 at the top of my biggest hill.

I lost about a 0.5 mpg off the trip average going into the last leg of my route. I let my speed get too low (35 mph) and the TCC unlocked. I had to pulse hard to get back to 42 mph so it would lock again, and it costed me a 56.

Still happy at the mileage

tank mpg is at 50.8!
