For whom ever is reading this, I want you to know that these mpgs do not come easily. A lot of work has to be done off the road with modifications and on the road with strict attention to conditions, the ScanGauge, and the right foot. I am usually travelling between 40-45 mph, and sometimes slower than this. Living out in the country means lots of stop signs, so I have to plan accordingly by coasting over 0.5 a mile to each in order for my mpgs to balance out, meaning I start coasting to a stop @ 40.5 mpg and by the time my torque converter locks up @ 42 mph, the Trip Mpg is 40.5.
Hopefully with LB my average speed can increase along with my mpg

BD could you explain this a little more? I'm not understanding it.
